A secular increase in BMD in Chinese women.
Article in Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Population-based studies have revealed a decline in the incidence of age-adjusted hip fractures in southern Chinese women during the past decade. To determine whether there was a secular change in population characteristics that accounted for this decline, we compared the bone mineral density (BMD) and lifestyle habits of two cohorts of women who were more than 50 years of age and who were recruited from 1995 to 2000 and 2005 to 2010. The BMD levels in the 2005-2010 cohort were significantly higher at the spine and hip and ranged from 3.6 to 17.8% among the different age groups. Additionally, a significantly lower prevalence of subjects with osteoporosis and osteopenia was observed. Longer reproductive years, higher levels of physical activity, higher estradiol and 25(OH) vitamin D levels, and lower alkaline phosphatase levels were found in the 2005-2010 cohort. After adjusting for bone-determining factors, significant differences were detected in the BMD levels at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip (4.17, 9.02, and 9.34%, respectively) in women >50 years of age but not in women ≤50 years of age. The secular increase in BMD and healthier lifestyles most likely led to the decline in the incidence of age-adjusted fractures.
