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

backgroundOsteoporosis-associated fractures represent a risk factor for developing further fragility fractures. Therefore, guideline-oriented osteoporosis intervention is of utmost importance during inpatient fracture treatment. PATIENTS AND

methodsWomen >50 years and men >60 years with fractures of the lumbar or thoracic spine, proximal femur, proximal humerus and distal radius were included in a prospective study. We analyzed the initiation of diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis during the inpatient stay.

resultsA total of 455 patients were included and bone mineral density measurement (DXA) was carried out in 65.9 %. Women underwent DXA in 69.5 % and men significantly less frequently in 52.1 %. Osteoporosis was diagnosed in 56.6 %, where women were affected in 56.2 % and men in 59 % of cases. In 83.8 % osteoporosis had been previously unknown. Treatment according to the guidelines of the Organisation of German Scientific Osteology-related Societies (DVO) was initiated in 86.7 % and 77.1 % of women >70 years and men >80 years required anti-resorptive treatment after DXA.

conclusionsThe majority of elderly patients with fractures also suffer from osteoporosis, independent of gender. Even nowadays, osteoporosis is predominantly not diagnosed until the incidence of a fracture. Therefore, the trauma surgeon is in a key position to initiate diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.
