Degree of vertebral compression in single and multiple osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. The ratio of anterior and posterior height of fractured thoracic, thoracolumbar, and lumbar vertebra. Thoracolumbar vertebra in MSVF-2 and MSVF-3/m showed significantly higher ratio of anterior and posterior vertebral height than in SSVF. SSVF: single segment vertebral fracture; MSVF-2: multi-segment vertebral fractures involving two vertebra; MSVF-3/m: multi-segment vertebral fractures involving three or more vertebra. ns: not significantly different; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01
