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

Estrogen therapy and hormone therapy are effective options for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, although because of their significant side effect profile, long term use for these applications is not recommended. Whereas SERMs (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators) exhibit a more favorable side effect profile, the currently available medicines in this class are substantially less effective in bone than classical estrogens. However, the results of substantial efforts that have gone into defining the mechanisms that underlie the pharmacology of estrogens, antiestrogens and SERMs have informed the development of the next generation of SERMs and have led to the development of TSECs (Tissue Selective Estrogen Complexes), a new class of ER-modulator. Further, the recent determination that the oxysterol 27-hydroxycholesterol functions as an endogenous SERM has highlighted an unexpected link between hypercholesterolemia and bone biology and must be considered in any discussions of ER-pharmacology. This review considers the most recent progress in our understanding of ER pharmacology and how this has and will be translated into new medicines for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.
