Exclusion criteria included asthma diagnosis before age 6, history of prior fractures, and the presence of severe comorbidities. Asthma cases were identified by the Korean Standard Classification of Diseases, 8th Revision (KCD\u20108) codes J45 and J46, and fractures were determined using all relevant KCD\u20108 codes. Propensity score matching was used to balance demographic and clinical characteristics between the asthma and non\u2010asthma groups. Fracture risk was analyzed using logistic regression models adjusted for covariates. Within the asthma cohort, the analysis investigated corticosteroid exposure, focusing on both recent and cumulative exposure to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and systemic corticosteroids within 1\u2009year before the occurrence of fractures.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      From an initial cohort of 30,409 children, 13,275 were included in the final analysis, comprising 2325 asthma patients and 10,950 non\u2010asthma controls. Asthma was associated with a higher risk of fractures (Odds Ratio [OR]: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.12\u20131.34,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.001). Among asthma patients, recent ICS use within 90\u2009days before a fracture was linked to the highest risk (Adjusted Odds Ratio [Adjusted OR]: 2.98, 95% CI: 2.95\u20133.05,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.001).
