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

Osteoporosis and bone fractures are frequently overlooked complications of androgen deprivation therapy in men with nonmetastatic prostate cancer. All such patients should have their bone mineral density (BMD) monitored and be offered preventive measures, such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation; patients with low BMD should be offered treatment. Several agents, including bisphosphonates, are available (although this use is currently off-label), and upcoming treatments, such as denosumab and toremifene, have shown promise in reducing fracture risk in these patients.
