Best Bisphosphonate Threshold for 10-Year Vertebral and Non-vertebral Fracture Mitigation.

Aims: This study was aimed to determine the ideal thresholds for bone mineral densities in our tested Jordanian cohort to initiate bisphosphonate pharmacotherapeutics in order to establish a national protocol for prescribing bisphosphonates that is tailored to the local population, rather than relying on global T and Z scores standards.

Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the entire population of adult patients at Prince Rashid bin Al-Hussein Hospital Rehabilitation and Rheumatology Center between August and October 2023 for the purpose of screening, monitoring, diagnosing, and treating osteoporosis. The study included 328 clients suspected to have osteoporosis, selected based on criteria such as primary osteoporosis or potential secondary osteoporosis.
