Values are regression coefficients (95% confidence interval). The measure of association was the standardized magnitude of effect; ie, beta coefficient from regression models using standardized variables for independent and dependent variables. All regression models were adjusted for age and clinical site. TBS= trabecular bone score; LS-VBMD=lumbar spine (trabecular) volumetric BMD.
