In this concise review article, the role of IR in increased risk of osteoporotic fractures in MetS, obesity, and T2DM is discussed and summarised, including consideration of the need for fracture risk assessment as a 'preventive measure', especially in patients with T2DM and chronic MetS with abdominal obesity. Personalised and targeted diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to prevent osteoporotic fractures in IR-related diseases are needed and could make significant contributions to health outcomes.
