1 Hazard ratios (95% CI) for fracture-related hospitalisation by fruit serve intake analysed using Cox proportional hazard models. Fruit serves were calculated based on the 2013 Australian Dietary Guidelines of a fruit serve equal to 150 g/day; 2 Test for trend conducted using median value for each fruit serve category (0.7, 1.5 and 2.5 serves/day); 3 Multivariable-adjusted model included age, BMI, treatment code, prevalent diabetes mellitus, socioeconomic status, physical activity, smoking history, and energy, protein, calcium, and alcohol intake.
