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 aim of our study was to compare the significance of risk factors for osteoporosis according to gender and menopausal state in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Bone mineral density (dual X-ray absorptiometry), cumulative glucocorticoid dose, age, disease duration, body mass index (BMI) and parameters of disease activity and bone turnover were registered in 343 postmenopausal women, 100 premenopausal women and 108 men with RA. Osteoporosis was found in a significantly higher percentage in postmenopausal women (55.7%) and in men (50.5%) in comparison with premenopausal women (18%; P < 0.001). The following risk factors for osteoporosis were found: older age, low BMI and high cumulative glucocorticoid dose in postmenopausal women, low BMI and high cumulative glucocorticoid dose in men and low BMI in premenopausal women. There is a very high prevalence of osteoporosis not only in postmenopausal women but also in men with RA. Osteoporosis risk factors are strongly dependent from gender and menopausal state.
