The FN BMD T-score was significantly associated with hip, non-spine and major osteoporotic fracture risk in men and women with and without T2D. Fracture risk for a given T-score and age was equal in individuals with and without T2D, as was the ability of the FN BMD T-score to predict fracture risk.
