Review in Current osteoporosis reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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

A recent unexpected development of bone biology is that bone is an endocrine organ regulating a growing number of physiological processes. One of the functions regulated by bone through the hormone osteocalcin is glucose homeostasis. In this overview, we will explain why we hypothesized that bone mass and energy metabolism should be subjected to a coordinated endocrine regulation. We will then review the experiments that revealed the endocrine function of osteocalcin and the cell biology events that allow osteocalcin to become a hormone. We will also illustrate the importance of this regulation to understand whole-body glucose homeostasis in the physiological state and in pathological conditions. Lastly, we will mention epidemiological and genetic evidence demonstrating that this function of osteocalcin is conserved in humans.
