HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance; BMI, body mass index; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; SERM, selective estrogen receptor modulators; AST, aspartate transaminase; ALT, alanine transaminase; BMD, bone mineral density.

Model 1 adjusted for age and BMI; model 2 adjusted for model 1 parameters+eGFR, AST, ALT and total cholesterol; model 3 adjusted for model 2 parameters+hip BMD, physical activity (exercise/week), medication history (SERM, metformin or thiazolidinediones), smoking history and fracture history.
