Ettinger B et al. – The authors recommend revising the US–FRAX by updating current base population values for hip fracture and major osteoporotic fracture. The impact of these revisions on FRAX is likely to be lowering of 10–year fracture probabilities, but more precise estimates of the impact of these changes will be available after these new rates are incorporated into the FRAX tool.
