The trabecular bone score (TBS) was found to be significantly associated with moderate coronary artery calcification (CAC). The aim of this study was to further explore the association between TBS-adjusted Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) and CAC score in women. The electronic medical record database of a regional teaching hospital in southern Taiwan yielded women who received both coronary computed tomography and bone mineral density (BMD) measurement during their general health examination. Health history, anthropomorphic measurements, laboratory results, BMD, and T-scores were obtained. TBS values were calculated from database spine dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry files. Linear regression analyses tested the association between CAC score and 10-year probability of major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) and hip fracture (HF) determined by TBS-adjusted FRAX. Of the 116 women (mean age 55.8 years) studied, 24.1% had osteoporosis. Simple linear regression showed a significant association of CAC score with an increase in MOF and HF risk as measured by TBS-adjusted FRAX. In multiple linear regression adjusted for potential confounders, CAC score remained significantly associated with TBS-adjusted FRAX for right MOF (p = 0.002), left MOF (p = 0 006), right HF (p = 0.005), and left HF (p = 0.015). In conclusion, clinicians should be vigilant to the potential increased risk of coronary events among women with increased TBS-adjusted FRAX for MOF and HF.
