Predictor	Multivariable analysis
Predictor	Odds Ratio	95% CI	P-value
Age (for every 10 yrs increase)	1.20	0.57–2.53	0.83
Female sex	1.35	0.18–9.87	0.77
BMI (for every 5 kg/m² increase)	0.94	0.49–1.80	0.85
Osteocalcin (for every ng/mL increase)	1.10	0.92–1.32	0.26
PINP (for every 1μg/L increase)	0.97	0.90–1.07	0.62
CTX (for every ng/mL increase)	2.44	0.0–3189	0.8
Sclerostin (for every 100 pg/mL increase)	0.63	0.40–0.98	*0.04
