aBMD, vBMD, cortical to total‐bone ratio, composite strength indices, and CTX‐1 were the dependent values in the model. The results for the other independent parameters used in the model listed in Table 2 are shown in Supplementary Material Table S1.

aBMD = areal bone mineral density; BSI = bending strength index; CSI = compression strength index; CTx‐1 = C‐telopeptide of type I collagen; ISI = impact strength index; vBMD = volumetric Bone mineral density; β = standardized coefficient β.
