All values are odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidential interval (95% CI). Model Nagelkerke R2: 0.27. *Homocysteine adjusted for risk factors for fracture and determinants of homocysteine. ACR, albumin to creatinine ratio; BMD, bone mineral density; CI, confidence interval; CRP, C‐reactive protein; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin.
