Short-term precision assessment of trabecular bone score and bone mineral density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry with different scan modes: an in vivo study.
Trial report in European radiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
objectivesWe estimated the in vivo reproducibility of trabecular bone score (TBS) from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) using different imaging modes to be compared to that of bone mineral density (BMD).
methodsWe enrolled 30 patients for each imaging mode: fast-array, array, high definition. Each patient underwent two DXA examinations with in-between repositioning. BMD and TBS were obtained according to the International Society for Clinical Densitometry guidelines. The coefficient of variation (CoV) was calculated as the ratio between root mean square standard deviation and mean, percent least significant change (LSC) as 2.77 × CoV, reproducibility as the complement to 100% LSC.
resultsFast-array imaging mode resulted in 0.8% CoV and 2.1% LSC for BMD, 1.9% and 5.3% for TBS, respectively; array imaging mode resulted in 0.7% and 2.0% for BMD, 1.9% and 5.2%, for TBS; high-definition imaging mode resulted in 0.7% and 2.0%, for BMD; 2.0% and 5.4% for TBS, respectively. Reproducibility of TBS (95%) was significantly lower than that of BMD (98%) (p < 0.012). Difference in reproducibility among the imaging modes was not significant for either BMD or TBS (p = 0.942).
conclusionWhile TBS reproducibility was significantly lower than that of BMD, differences among imaging modes were not significant for both TBS and BMD. KEY POINTS: • TBS is an emerging tool for assessing BMD. • TBS reproducibility is lower than that of BMD. • Differences between imaging modes are not significant for either TBS or BMD.
