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

The purpose of this study is to assess the association between type 2 diabetes and bone mineral density. This study included 145 Japanese patients (64 men and 81 women) with type 2 diabetes and 95 non-diabetic control subjects (41 men and 54 women) of similar age. We measured bone mineral density (BMD) at the sites with different cortical/cancellous bone ratio (lumbar spine, femoral neck, and distal radius) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. BMD and Z score at the distal radius were significantly lower in type 2 diabetic patients than those in control subjects, and in type 2 diabetic patients, the Z score at the distal radius was lower than that at their own lumbar spine and femoral neck. In type 2 diabetic patients, negative correlation between BMD and the mean HbA1c during the previous 2 years was found significantly at the distal radius in both genders and at the femoral neck in women. These results indicate the selective cortical bone loss in type 2 diabetes and suggest the importance of also determining BMD at the radius and keeping good metabolic control to prevent bone loss in type 2 diabetic patients.
