Effects of physical activity, dietary calcium intake and selected lifestyle factors on bone density in young women.
Article in CMAJ : Canadian Medical Association journal = journal de l'Association medicale canadienne, 1990. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
To assess the possible effects of physical activity, calcium intake and lifestyle factors on bone density, we measured the calcaneal bone density of 101 healthy female volunteers aged 20 to 35 years. Information was obtained through questionnaires and 1-week and 2-week recall tests. There appeared to be no relation between height, weight or age and bone density in the study sample. Childhood milk consumption, current dietary calcium intake, level of avocational physical activity and lifestyle variables such as cigarette smoking and coffee consumption, considered separately, did not reach statistically significant levels as determinants of bone density. Childhood physical activity level appeared to have a significant positive effect on bone density.
