Application of the WHO fracture risk assessment tool FRAXR in a Spanish population • 8, 573 women were included, 69% were under 60 years and 14% presented a previous fracture. After follow-up, 12% had a major osteoporotic fracture. Wrist was the most incident fracture site and hip was accounted only for 0. 9% of the total. • 10% of women with none risk factors had a major osteoporotic fracture, in turn 57% of those women with more than three risk factors had a major osteoporotic fracture. However the fracture ratio (O/E) was 3. 1 CI 95% [2. 8; 3. 5]. • Del Rio et al ASBMR 2009 Poster 0319
Application of the WHO fracture risk assessment tool FRAXR in a Spanish population • The O/E ratio was lower as higher was the age of women (for those older than 70 O/E=1. 8 CI 95% [1. 2; 2. 2]), longer the follow-up time (for those with more than 10 years O/E=2. 7 CI 95% [2. 2; 3. 4]) or lower the number of risk factors (for those without risk factors O/E=4. 2 CI 95% [3. 5; 5. 3]). • In conclusion, the Spanish version of the FRAX algorithm for this population underestimates the observed fracture incidence independently of the T-score, number of risk factors and follow-up time. More in-depth analyses are warranted to find a reasonable explanation to this issue. • Del Rio et al ASBMR 2009 Poster 0319

Comparison of 10 -Year Probability of Hip Fracture Predicted by FRAX and Observed Hip Fracture Incidence in the Framingham Osteoporosis Study • Expected number of hip fracture was determined by multiplying FRAX probabilities by the population at risk. Observed 10 -yr cumulative incidence of hip fracture was calculated as number of cases divided by the population at risk. Number of hip fractures observed was divided by number expected (O/E) to assess performance of FRAX. Analysis was stratified by sex-specific quintiles of FRAX and by age group (40 -75, 76 -90 yr). • Samelson et al ASBMR 2009 (Poster 0295)
Comparison of 10 -Year Probability of Hip Fracture Predicted by FRAX and Observed Hip Fracture Incidence in the Framingham Osteoporosis Study • • Mean age of participants was 65 yrs. 10 -yr incidence of hip fracture was 0. 031 (163 observed), nearly identical to FRAX predicted probability (0. 032; 166 expected), yielding O/E=0. 980 (CI: 0. 835 -1. 136). O/E ratios were similar across quintiles of predicted probabilities (TABLE). Findings were similar for women and men, however, the relatively small number of fractures in men resulted in unstable estimates. For example, 10 -yr incidence in women was 0. 045 (133 observed) compared to predicted probability of 0. 042 (125 expected) yielding O/E=1. 060 (CI: 0. 887 -1. 248); incidence in men was 0. 013 (30 observed) compared to predicted probability of 0. 018 (40 expected), yielding O/E=0. 733 (CI: 0. 494 -1. 019). In persons 76 -90 yrs, O/E=1. 315 (CI: 1. 061 -1. 596). In contrast, O/E=0. 732 (CI: 0. 570 -0. 913) for participants 4075 yrs. Overall, FRAX performed well in predicting 10 -yr probability of hip fracture in a large, population-based study of U. S. Caucasian women and men. However, FRAX underestimated hip fracture risk 32% in persons 76 -90 yrs and overestimated risk 27% in those 40 -75 yrs. Samelson et al ASBMR 2009 (Poster 0295)

Application of the WHO fracture risk assessment tool FRAXR in a Spanish population • Clinical and BMD data large population cohort of Barcelona. • Inclusion criteria were: age range 40 -90 yrs, clinical risk factors, femoral neck BMD T-score available and follow-up longer than 7 years. • Main outcome was: major osteoporotic fracture at least 7 years after the first BMD measurement. The total number of predicted fractures by the FRAX algorithm was compared with the total number of new registered fractures during the follow-up time in the study population and expressed as observed - expected fracture (O/E) ratio. Results were stratified by age group, follow-up time and number of clinical risk factors used in the FRAX algorithm • Del Rio et al ASBMR 2009 Poster 0319
Validity of the WHO FRAX Model to Predict the Risk of Fracture in Early Postmenopausal Women • compared the predictive validity of the FRAX model and femoral neck (FN) BMD in a large cohort of early PM women. • The analysis was conducted in the MENOS cohort that included an initial population of 4, 024 women ≥ 45 years of age, from whom 2, 650 (mean age 54± 4 yrs) were followed over a period of time of 13. 4 yrs. • Baseline characteristics were obtained through a structured questionnaire as well as BMD measurement (Lunar DPX). • Excluded women with current or past OP treatment >3 months at baseline (n=544). Due to changes in the procedure of BMD measurements that occurred during the baseline examination period of time, only 1, 399 out of 2, 196 women had a valid FN BMD. Therefore, the WHO FRAX score was calculated only in those 1, 399 women according to the CRFs and the FN T-score as given by the Lunar device.
Validity of the WHO FRAX Model to Predict the Risk of Fracture in Early Postmenopausal Women • The prevalence of the CRFs were as follows: low BMI=5. 2%; history of prior fracture=2. 4%; parental history of hip fracture=10. 4%; current smoking=8. 7%; ever use of glucocorticoids=1. 4%; rheumatoid arthritis=0. 1%; secondary OP=5%; alcohol consumption (1+U/d)=0. 1%. • A 1 st incident major low-trauma fracture was recorded in 98 women over the follow up period and all events were confirmed by radiographs or by medical/surgical reports. The performances of the scores were compared using areas under receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves (AUC).
Validity of the WHO FRAX Model to Predict the Risk of Fracture in Early Postmenopausal Women • The AUC (0. 66) for the FRAX model was not significantly different • • • from that of FN BMD alone (0. 69). The WHO FRAX model lack sensitivity i. e. the detection rate was low. For example, for a specificity of 80%, the FRAX model had a sensitivity of about 38%. Since, 381 out of 1, 399 women started HRT during follow-up, the analyses were re-runned in the remaining women. The AUCs increased to 0. 69 and 0. 71, respectively for the FRAX model and FN BMD. In this population, the FRAX model has a poor value to predict the risk of fracture and does not significantly improve the predictive value of hip BMD alone. These results raise the question of the selection of the CRFs that need to be considered in the clinical assessment of the risk of fracture in early PM women.

Imputation of Ten Year Osteoporotic Fracture Rates from Hip Fractures: A Clinical Validation Study. • to evaluate the method for imputation of osteoporotic fracture rates from hip fractures alone. • 38, 784 women age 47. 5 years or older at the time of baseline femoral neck BMD identified in a database containing all clinical DXA results for the Province of Manitoba, Canada. • Health service records were assessed for the presence of non-trauma osteoporotic fracture codes after BMD testing (431 hip, 787 forearm, 336 clinical vertebral, and 431 humerus fractures). • Ten year hip and osteoporotic fracture rates were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. • The population was stratified by age (50 to 90, 5 year width strata) and again by femoral neck T-scores (-4. 0 to 0. 0, 0. 5 SD width strata). • Within each stratum, the ratio of hip to osteoporotic fractures was calculated and compared to the predicted ratio from FRAX. • Leslie WD, Lix LM; for the Manitoba Bone Density Program.

Imputation of Ten Year Osteoporotic Fracture Rates from Hip Fractures: A Clinical Validation Study. • Increasing age was associated with greater predicted hip-to -osteoporotic ratios (youngest 0. 07 vs oldest 0. 41) and observed ratios (youngest 0. 10 vs oldest 0. 48). • Lower T-scores were associated with greater predicted (highest 0. 04 vs lowest 0. 71) and observed ratios (highest 0. 06 vs lowest 0. 44). • There was a strong positive correlation between predicted and observed ratios (Spearman r = 0. 90 -0. 97, p <. 001). • For 14 of the 18 strata, the predicted ratio was within the observed 95% confidence interval. • Since collection of population-based hip fracture data is considerably easier than collection of non-hip fracture data, this study supports the current emphasis on using hip fractures as the preferred site for FRAX model calibration. • Leslie WD, Lix LM; for the Manitoba Bone Density

Updated fracture incidence rates for the US version of FRAX(R). • recommend revising the US-FRAX by updating current base population values for hip fracture and major osteoporotic fracture. The impact of these revisions on FRAX(R) is likely to be lowering of 10 -year fracture probabilities, but more precise estimates of the impact of these changes will be available after these new rates are incorporated into the FRAX(R) tool. • Ettinger et al Osteoporos Int. 2009 Aug 25.
Updated fracture incidence rates for the US version of FRAX(R). • US hospital discharge data from 2006 to calculate annual age- and sexspecific hip fracture rates and age-specific ratios to estimate clinical vertebral fracture rates. • To estimate the incidence of any one of four major osteoporotic fractures, They first summed these newly derived hip and vertebral fracture estimates with Olmsted County, MN, wrist and upper humerus fracture rates, and then applied 10 -20% discounts for overlap. RESULTS: Compared with rates used in the current FRAX(R) tool, 2006 hip fracture rates are about 16% lower, with greatest reductions observed among those below age 65 years; major osteoporotic fracture rates are about one quarter lower, with similar reductions across all ages. • Ettinger et al Osteoporos Int. 2009 Aug 25.
