Obesity raises the risk of incident fractures in humans (OR: 1.71; CI:1.08, 2.71).
“Obese older adults by body fat percentage had significantly higher likelihood of all incident fractures (OR: 1.71; CI:1.08, 2.71)”

In older men, a five-variable physical model beat FRAX without bone scans, raising 10-year fracture discrimination by an area under the curve of 0.052.In older men, a five-variable physical model beat FRAX without bone scans, raising 10-year fracture discrimination by an area under the curve of 0.052.
