1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Metabolic bone disorders are recognized as one of the late complications after gastrectomy. However, the onset time and the extent of bone disorders are still unknown. We examined the influence of active vitamin D treatment on bone metabolism in the early period after gastrectomy. Sixty-three postgastrectomy patients were divided into two groups; active vitamin D treatment group [VD(+)] and no treatment group [VD(-)]. The level of serum calcium and phosphate was increased in the VD(+) group compared with the preoperative level, and parathyroid hormone (PTH-M) was decreased in the VD(+) group. Both 1,25-(OH)2D3 and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (B-ALP) were increased in the VD(-) group. Cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen (I-CTP) was increased in the VD(+) group. There was no change in calcitonin in either group. In conclusion, metabolic bone disorders after gastrectomy have their onset in the early period, and active vitamin D treatment from the early period may be effective in preventing bone disorders.
