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 is listed by the WHO among the ten most frequent and socio-economically important, chronic diseases of mankind. The term osteoporosis however comprises a number of different pathophysiological conditions and clinical situations of weakened bones with increased risk of fragility fractures. A modern anti-osteoporotic drug should provide qualified study results proving therapeutic efficacy over this broad range of daily clinical appearances of osteoporosis. The decision for treatment in the individual patients depends no longer only on bone mineral density. Today, the major criterion for decision making is the prospective 10-year risk for fractures. Since this risk is calculated on the basis of age, sex, bone mineral density, prevalent fractures, and a number of other contributing risk factors (Kanis et al., Osteoporos Int 12:989-995, 2001; Kanis et al., Osteoporos Int 19:385-397, 2008), it seems to be of interest to have a look whether the fracture-reducing potency of a drug is influenced by these risk factors. The purpose of this review is to analyze whether the fracture-reducing efficacy of strontium ranelate in patients with osteoporosis can be achieved independently of sex, etiology of osteoporosis, and the major diagnostically relevant risk factors.
