Highlights
Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) have a 1.2–2.5 times higher risk for fractures [1], which is already evident at an early age [2]
bone health index (BHI), BHI SDS and bone age were determined by the BoneXpert® program
The mean BHI value was −4.41 ± 0.67 (n = 65), whereas the mean BHI SDS was −1.15 ± 1.19 (n = 54) with median −1.13 (−4.18 to 1.68)
