Removal of FRAX race/ethnicity calibration
upin humans1
removal of FRAX race/ethnicity calibration increases high calculated 10-year hip fracture risk in humans (High-risk prevalence increased to 14.9% (Asian/PI), 10.9% (Hispanic), and 8.1% (Black)).

Older age
upin humans1
Older age is associated with high calculated 10-year hip fracture risk in humans (20.5% of men aged ≥65 years and 87.3% aged 80–89 years had 10yHIP ≥ 3%).
“Age was a major risk factor; 20.5% of men aged ≥65 years, increasing to 87.3% of men aged 80-89 years had 10yHIP ≥ 3%.”
