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

Persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at increased risk for hip fracture despite normal bone mineral density (BMD). The contribution of body composition to hip geometry, a measure of hip strength, has not been studied in T2DM. We hypothesized that lean mass would predict hip geometry. Subjects (n=134) for this cross-sectional analysis were men and women aged 56 ± 6yr with non-insulin-requiring T2DM. Fat and lean mass were measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Abdominal fat was measured with magnetic resonance imaging. Hip geometry parameters including section modulus, cross-sectional area, and buckling ratio were estimated from DXA using validated formulae. Subjects had normal BMD, elevated body mass indices (29-41 kg/m(2)), and controlled T2DM (hemoglobin A1c: 5.1-8.3%). In bivariate analysis, lean mass was positively associated with section modulus and cross-sectional area in both sexes (r=0.36-0.55, p<0.05). In multivariate analyses, lean mass remained a significant predictor of all hip strength estimates in both sexes. In women alone, fat mass predicted parameters of hip strength. These data demonstrate that lean mass is significantly associated with hip strength in subjects with non-insulin-requiring T2DM. Resistance exercises that build lean mass may be an intervention for hip fracture prevention in T2DM, although additional research is needed.
