Prevalent Morphometrically Assessed Vertebral Fractures in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes, Prediabetes and Normal Glucose Metabolism: The Maastricht Study

BackgroundType 2 diabetes (T2D) is frequently reported to be associated with an increased fracture risk. Epidemiological data on prevalent morphometric vertebral fractures (VFs) in T2D are sparse and even less is known in the prediabetic state.PurposeTo determine the association between prevalence a...
