Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% CI) for fracture-related hospitalisation by fruit type (per 20 g/day) analysed using Cox proportional hazard models, adjusted for age, BMI, treatment code, prevalent diabetes mellitus, socioeconomic status, physical activity, smoking history, and energy, protein, calcium, and alcohol intake.
