Review in Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

introductionOsteoporotic fracture (OF) is a public health problem. It is a common practice in the genetics of osteoporosis that bone mineral density (BMD) was studied as a major surrogate phenotype in gene search for risk of OF (ROF) because of their high phenotypic correlation. However, some studies indicate that the genetic correlation between BMD and ROF is very low. This implies that most genes found important for BMD may not be relevant to ROF. Ideally, employing OF per se as a direct study phenotype can directly find the relevant genes underlying ROF. EVIDENCE: Here, we summarized some evidence supporting ROF under moderate genetic control, and the current progress of molecular genetic studies employing OF as the direct study phenotype, then give our consideration on the future prospects in the genetics of ROF.
