Is the article required or not?

Thin women are at 'a' greater risk for developing osteoporosis.

I think it is not, but please confirm.
Thanks.

Thanks a lot.

And it it OK to exclude the word "developing" in that sentence? Would it be understandable that it is a risk for that disease without saying "developing"?

Hi,

Would you please tell me if the sentence is possible without "developing" as well?
