The composite all-site outcome includes hip, nonhip femur, humerus, tibia/fibula, proximal forearm, distal forearm, clavicle/scapula, sternum, spine, and pelvis fractures. Hip fractures are excluded from the nonhip outcome, and vertebral fractures are excluded from the nonvertebral outcome.
Estimates are adjusted for the covariates presented in Table 1.
