Improved prediction of fracture risk leveraging a genome-wide polygenic risk score
<p><strong>Background</strong> Accurately quantifying the risk of osteoporotic fracture is important for directing appropriate clinical interventions. While skeletal measures such as heel quantitative speed of sound (SOS) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry bone mineral density ar...
