Table 2.

Ten-year probability of major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) for Icelandic women at different ages, categorised by (A) a clinical vertebral fracture within the previous 2 years and (B) a prior fracture of undetermined recency. Data from Kanis et al. 2020 [41]

Age 10-year probability of MOF Ratio
(A) Recent vertebral fracture (B) Prior fracture in adult life
50 29.0 11.7 2.47
60 36.1 19.4 1.86
70 41.9 27.6 1.52
80 42.5 34.2 1.·24
90 34.7 33.3 1.04

BMI set at 25 kg/m2

The right-hand column provides the ratio by which to adjust FRAX probabilities by virtue of a recent clinical vertebral fracture. Probabilities and ratios are derived from the UK
