Abstract excerpt
People with type 2 diabetes have increased fracture risk despite preserved bone density. In this matched cross-sectional study, suppressed Bone Status Indices and exploratory sex-related hormonal associations were observed in T2D, indicating altered bone remodeling that is not captured by aBMD alone. These findings support the need for fracture risk assessment approaches that incorporate biochemical markers and...
