Abstract

BACKGROUND: The rising incidence of refractures and associated adverse outcomes among individuals with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures has gained significant attention. Identifying refracture risk is crucial for implementing effective preventive strategies. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for assessing the risk of refracture following an initial vertebral fragility fracture.
