Abbreviations: AUC, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; BMD, bone mineral density; FRAX, Fracture Risk Assessment Tool; OST, Osteoporosis Screening Tool.
All models are adjusted for current hormone therapy use (yes or no) and the Calcium plus Vitamin D Trial intervention assignment (active, placebo, or not randomized). Because only 1 Asian participant had a femoral neck BMD T score of −2.5 or less, we do not display results for Asian participants.
Femoral neck AUC comparisons by race and ethnicity are as follows. For FRAX, P > .99 for Black vs Hispanic women, P = .77 for Black vs White women, and P = .79 for Hispanic vs White women. For OST, P = .50 for Black vs Hispanic women, P = .60 for Black vs White women, and P = .67 for Hispanic vs White women. For comparison of FRAX AUC vs OST AUC at the femoral neck within each racial and ethnic group, P < .001 for all participants, P = .22 for Black women, P = .61 for Hispanic women, and P < .001 for White women. Any BMD site AUC comparisons by race and ethnicity are as follows. For FRAX, P = .96 for Black vs Hispanic women, P = .86 for Black vs White women, and P = .96 for Hispanic vs White women. For OST, P = .96 for Hispanic vs White women, P = .74 for Black vs White women, and P = .88 for Hispanic vs White women. For comparisons of FRAX AUC vs OST AUC at any BMD site within each racial and ethnic group, P < .001 for all participants, P = .03 for Black women, P = .19 for Hispanic women, and P < .001 for White women. P values were calculated using a χ2 statistic on 1 df testing the difference between each paired group.
Includes femoral neck, total hip, or lumbar spine.
