Association between secreted phosphoprotein-1 (SPP1) polymorphisms and low bone mineral density in women.
Article in PloS one, 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
backgroundA recent meta-analysis found that secreted phosphoprotein-1 (SPP1) can predict the risk of both osteoporosis and fracture. No study has explored the association of SPP1 haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNPs) and haplotypes with bone mineral density (BMD).
methodsThis is a cross-sectional study. A total of 1,313 healthy Taiwanese women aged 40 to 55 years were recruited from MJ Health Management Institute from 2009 to 2010. BMD was dichotomized into high and low BMD groups. Three common (allele frequency ≥5%) htSNPs were selected to examine the association between sequence variants of SPP1 and BMD.
resultsHomozygosity for the T allele of rs4754 were protective from low BMD [TT vs. CC: adjusted OR (AOR) = 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.83-0.89]. A protective effect was also found for women carrying 2 copies of Hap3 TCT (AOR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.34-0.95). Menopausal status marginally interacted with SPP1 rs6839524 on BMD (p = 0.049). Postmenopausal women carrying variant rs6839524 (GG+GC vs. CC: AOR = 2.35, 95% CI = 1.06-5.20) or Hap1 TGC (AOR = 2.36, 95% CI = 1.06-5.24) were associated with 2.4-fold risk of low BMD. For women with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2), variant rs6839524 (AOR = 7.64) and Hap1 (AOR = 6.42) were associated with increased risk of low BMD. These findings did not reach statistical significance after correction for multiple tests.
conclusionsSPP1 htSNP protected against low BMD in middle-aged women. SPP1 genetic markers may be important for the prediction of osteoporosis at an early age.
