The number of patients, average DXR-BMD, DXR T-score, number of fractures and annual fracture rate are provided per 5-year age group in Table 1 and per DXR T-score in Table 2.>> During the observation period, 122 patients (89 women and 33 men) suffered from a hip fracture.
The reimbursement criteria for osteoporosis medication in Korea do not include other risk factors besides the T-score and history of fracture.
When combining the areal Bone mineral Density and Trabecular Bone Score, the Trabecular Bone Score remains a predictor of fracture but not the areal Bone Mineral Density.
The mean Constant score of type B fractures was more than in type A and type C fractures.
The 26-point score based on presence of fracture of base or vault of skull (1 point), eye contusion (3 points), rib fracture (3 points), intracranial bleeding (4 points), multiple burns (3 points), and age of the child (3 points for age group 1-3 y, 12 points for age group 0-1 y) identified 87% of physical abused child when the score was ≥ 3 [ 29].
The HSS scores for each type of fracture were 90.5, 77.86, 81.23, 67.6, 58.75 and 56.5, respectively, for Schatzker I, II, III, IV, V and VI types.
The scores for each type of fracture were 90, 75.8, 78.11, 59.33, 57.25 and 55.83, respectively, for Schatzker I, II, III, IV, V and VI types.
The change caused by selecting references can affect the relationship between the T-score and the prediction of fracture risk.
As shown in Table 1, there was no significant difference in marital status, education, BMD of the femoral neck and the lumbar spine, WHO T-score classification, or type of fracture between the two groups.
Information regarding gender, age, year of injury, mechanism of injury, injury severity score (ISS), fracture side, state of skin/soft tissue injury [6], site of fracture along the tibial shaft and method of fixation were abstracted from the data base.
