    Advanced age and low bone mineral density are independent risk factors for adjacent vertebral fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty.

  • 2

    The study analyzed 429 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures who underwent single-level percutaneous vertebroplasty.

  • 3

    Univariate analysis showed significant differences in age, bone mineral density, and body mass index between the AVF and non-AVF groups.

  • 4

    Logistic regression identified advanced age and low BMD as significant predictors, with specific odds ratios for each factor.

  • 5

    A combined predictive model achieved moderate accuracy for risk stratification, outperforming individual risk factors in predictive performance.
