Logistic regression shows a strong protective effect of increased BMD values against the occurrence fractures during a 2-year follow-up interval. Numbers in square brackets are confidence intervals. The regression model is statistically significant with high goodness of fit [χ2 = 80.832, p < .001], Nagelkerke R2 = 0.7899, AUC = 0.962. AUC, area under the curve; DECT, dual-energy CT; BMD, bone mineral density
