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.
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
objectiveOsteoporosis predominantly affects menopausal women and has a significant morbidity expressed as fractures. The study aimed to describe the types of bisphosphonates used to treat osteoporosis in post-menopausal women and to establish how treatment non-compliance affects the fracture rate.
designRetrospective cohort study of women on active treatment with bisphosphonates for the past five years. LOCATION: Utebo Health Centre (Zaragoza) (16,000 inhabitants) with a general medical quota of 1,890 patients).
participantsA total of 129 women who were on active treatment with bisphosphonates for five years were included. MAIN MEASURES: The distribution by drug was analysed, as well as the percentage of women who did not comply with the treatment correctly and any identified fractures.
resultsA total of 129 women on treatment were identified (13.0% of all women patients): alendronic acid (45.7%), ibandronic acid (21.7%), risedronic acid (19.4%) and alendronic acid plus cholecalciferol (13,2%). 19.4% of women stopped their treatment after at least 3 months. Thirteen hip fractures were identified.
conclusionsThe overall treatment compliance was 80.6%, Depending on the type of bisphosphonate: alendronic acid plus cholecalciferol (88.2%), risedronic acid (88.0%), alendronic acid (78.0%), ibandronic acid (75.0%). The incidence of hip fractures was similar incidence to that observed with respect to non-compliance to treatment. Lack of therapeutic compliance is common in menopausal women, and measures should be promoted to increase effectiveness as well as to make patients aware of the importance of continuing treatment.
