Bold AUC or combined NRI indicates significant improvement in prediction, p < 0.05(two-sided);

Base model only contains FRAX with BMD;

*

Missing measured albumin resulted in missing values for 86 bioavailable testosterone and estradiol values in US data. For bioavailable T and E2 measures: number of hip fracture = 43, AUC of base model = 0.79; number of major osteoporotic fractures = 100, AUC of base model = 0.65
