Height, Weight, and Bone Mass in 6213 Children With and Without Fractures and OR for Fracture per SD Decrease in Each Variable

Parameter	Children not reporting a fracture (N = 5663) [mean (SD)]	Children reporting a fracture (N = 550) [mean (SD)]	OR for risk of fracture [OR (95% CI) p value]
Height (cm)	139.6 (6.4)	139.7 (6.4)	0.98 (0.88, 1.09) 0.696
Weight (kg)	34.6 (7.4)	35.0 (7.4)	0.96 (0.86, 1.07) 0.435
TBLH BMC (g)	891 (185)	884 (185)	1.07 (0.97, 1.19) 0.186
TBLH BMD (g/cm²)	0.778 (0.055)	0.773 (0.055)	1.12 (1.02, 1.25) 0.023
TBLH BA (cm²)	1137 (165)	1136 (166)	0.94 (0.84, 1.05) 0.250

Mean (SD) height, weight, TBLH BMC, BMD, and BA measured at 9.9 years of age in children who did and did not report fractures over the following 24 months and associations between these variables and risk of fracture. The ORs for fracture, which are per SD decrease in each variable, were calculated using logistic regression and minimally adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, maternal education, and paternal social class.
