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

unlabelledIn this pilot study, we demonstrated that women with osteopontin (OPN) over-expression show less resistance to postmenopausal osteoporosis than women with normal OPN levels. We hypothesized that the levels of plasma OPN could be used as a treatment indicator for intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH)-treated menopausal osteoporosis. We demonstrated that plasma OPN levels could be used as a biomarker for early treatment response.

introductionAnimal studies indicate that OPN-deficient mice are resistant to ovariectomy induced osteoporosis. Our pilot study also demonstrated women with OPN over expression may show less resistance to postmenopausal osteoporosis. The role of plasma OPN in PTH1-34-treated osteoporosis remains unclear.

methodsFrom September 2005 to September 2006, 31 menopausal women over 45 years of age with severe osteoporosis were enrolled in our study. Subjects were treated with PTH1-34 subcutaneously at a dose of 20 μg/day. Plasma OPN levels and BMD of the lumbar spine and hip were measured using ELISA and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline, 3, 6, and 9 months. Response to the treatment was assessed by the sequential change in bone mineral density and OPN expression using a general linear mixed model.

resultsThe plasma OPN decreased sequentially and significantly throughout the 9-month treatment course from 20.75 ± 5.36 to 11.2 ± 4.37 ng/ml (p < 0.001). The sequential improvement in the T-score and Z-score was significant in the lumbar spine but not in the hip area. In the lumbar spine, when the plasma OPN decreased by 1 ng/ml the T-score increased by 0.0406 and the Z-score increased by 0.0572 of lumbar spine.

conclusionOPN levels are related to the anabolic effect of PTH in human postmenopausal osteoporosis. Plasma OPN levels could be used as a biomarker for early treatment response.
