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

objectivesEarly assessment of bone mass may be useful for predicting future osteoporosis risk if bone measures "track" during growth. This prospective longitudinal multicenter study examined tracking of bone measures in children and adolescents over 6 years to sexual and skeletal maturity. STUDY

designA total of 240 healthy male and 293 healthy female patients, ages 6-17 years, underwent yearly evaluations of height, weight, body mass index, skeletal age, Tanner stage, and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) bone measurements of the whole body, spine, hip, and forearm for 6 years. All subjects were sexually and skeletally mature at final follow-up. Correlation was performed between baseline and 6-year follow-up measures, and change in DXA Z-scores was examined for subjects who had baseline Z < -1.5.

resultsDXA Z-scores (r = 0.66-0.87) had similar tracking to anthropometric measures (r = 0.64-0.74). Tracking was stronger for bone mineral density compared with bone mineral content and for girls compared with boys. Tracking was weakest during mid- to late puberty but improved when Z-scores were adjusted for height. Almost all subjects with baseline Z < -1.5 had final Z-scores below average, with the majority remaining less than -1.0.

conclusionsBone status during childhood is a strong predictor of bone status in young adulthood, when peak bone mass is achieved. This suggests that bone mass measurements in children and adolescents may be useful for early identification of individuals at risk for osteoporosis later in life.
