    Elevated plasma F2-isoprostanes are significantly associated with increased fracture risk in older adults with type 2 diabetes.

  • 2

    A 93% increase in fracture risk correlates with each standard deviation increase in log plasma F2-isoprostanes in the T2D group.

  • 3

    No significant association between plasma F2-isoprostanes and fracture risk was found in the nondiabetes group.

  • 4

    Log plasma F2-isoprostanes moderately correlate with declines in total hip BMD in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

  • 5

    The study highlights the need for clinical markers beyond BMD to assess fracture risk in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
