Reference values for bone mineral density according to age with body size adjustment in Korean children and adolescents.
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 22 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
Bone acquisition failure during growth or low bone mineral density (BMD) in childhood and adolescence might increase future osteoporosis risk. To identify these children and adolescents, appropriate reference values are necessary. The robust reference values must be community based as well as sex-, age-, and ethnicity specific. In addition, body size adjustment is necessary because individuals demonstrate different body sizes and different tempos of growth, which affect measured BMD. We aimed to provide reference data with body size adjustment of Korean children and adolescents. We used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry data of 1,650 subjects (aged 10-20 years; 788 female) from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2010). The BMD of each region of interest (ROI), including the lumbar spine, total body less head, total body, and femoral neck, were obtained. We calculated the mean and percentiles for each ROI. Because height and weight variations were high and correlated independently with BMD within the same age group, we developed equations to calculate the "predicted BMD Z score." Although 12.8-17.9 % of subjects with short stature showed a low measured BMD Z score depending on the measured site, only 2.6 % of those of short stature had a low adjusted BMD Z score after applying the predicted BMD Z score. We also compared the BMD of children and adolescents of other ethnicities using the same device. This study provided robust reference values for the assessment and monitoring of bone health in Korean children and adolescents. Additionally, it extended the knowledge of bone acquisition in Asian children and adolescents.
