Abstract
⺠FRAX 10-year risk of having major osteoporotic fracture was significantly associated with the 5-year CVD risk. ⺠Women with higher 10-year risk of major osteoporotic or hip fracture had significantly higher total aortic calcification score. ⺠Women with the highest CVD risk were 5.4 times more likely to have higher risk of major osteoporotic fracture.
