Abstract

Objectives: To investigate fracture risk using the BONEcheck model and association with femoral neck bone mineral density in postmenopausal osteoporosis patients. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 131 patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis at Military Hospital 103, from April 2025 to April 2026. Results: The mean age of the participants was 70.13 years. The estimated 5-year risk of overall fracture among the study subjects was 12%, with the majority classified as having a high risk of fracture within the next 5 years (74%). The estimated 5-year risk of hip fracture was 4%, and most cases were categorized as having a high risk of hip fracture within the next 5 years (67.9%). A negative correlation was observed between the 5-year overall fracture risk and femoral neck bone mineral density (r=−0.269, p<0.001). Similarly, a negative correlation was found between the 5-year hip fracture risk and femoral neck bone mineral density (r=−0.315, p<0.001). Conclusions: The BONEcheck model is a useful tool for assessing the 5-year risk of overall fractures and hip fractures.
