The Relationships among Vitamin D Level, Balance, Muscle Strength, and Quality of Life in Postmenopausal Patients with Osteoporosis.

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
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to examine the relationships among vitamin D levels, balance, falls, muscular strength, and quality of life in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. [Subjects and Methods] Forty-six patients diagnosed with postmenopausal osteoporosis and forty-six healthy controls were included in the study. Bone mineral density was determined by DEXA, and functional balance was evaluated the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, Chair Raising (CRT) test, Berg Balance Scale (BBS). The muscular strengths were evaluated manually. The lumbosacral region range of motion (ROM) was measured by goniometry. The QUALEFFO-41 questionnaire was used for evaluating the quality of life. [Results] No statistically significant differences in muscular strength, balance, and fall values were found between the two groups. Statistically significant differences were noted between the QUALEFFO C, E, F and G scores and the QUALEFFO total scores of the QUALEFFO-41. Dividing the patient group into two groups revealed that patients with 25(OH)D levels < 15 ng/ml had significantly higher TUG and CRT test scores compared with patients with levels ≥ 15 ng/ml. Also, binary logistic regression analysis revealed that QUALEFFO total scores were found to be the independent factors for osteoporosis. [Conclusion] In this study, we found that vitamin D is necessary to maintain back extensor muscle strength, lumbar ROM, and balance. Our results show that bone mineral density, vitamin D level, balance, lumbar ROM, and the specified muscular strengths are factors that affect the quality of life.
