Participants completed questionnaires every five years, providing information on health status, lifestyle habits, dairy products consumption (milk, sour milk, yogurt, cheese), and fracture history. Cox proportional hazard models with time-dependent covariates were used to estimate hazard ratios for any fracture, hip fracture, or osteoporotic fracture based on dairy products consumption. The models were adjusted for time-updated BMI (kg\/m\u00b2), alcohol use (portions\/day), physical activity (hours\/month), age (years), use of calcium and\/or vitamin D supplements (yes\/no), and use of bone-affecting medications (yes\/no).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Higher liquid dairy products consumption (milk, sour milk, yogurt) was associated with decreased risk for any fracture (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.98, SE\u2009=\u20090.01, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.008) and osteoporotic fracture (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.97, SE\u2009=\u20090.01, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.011).
