The Time Course Changes in Bone Metabolic Markers after Administering the Anti-Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor-Kappa B Ligand Antibody and Drug Compliance among Patients with Osteoporosis.
Article in Asian spine journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
STUDY
designRetrospective study. PURPOSE: We conducted a study to investigate the time course changes in bone metabolic markers after the administration of the anti-receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) antibody and to assess drug compliance among osteoporotic patients. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: The anti-RANKL antibody is expected to provide an improvement in those with a bone metabolism disorder. However there are only a few clinical reports available on the effect of treatment.
methodsWe included 40 post-menopausal osteoporotic patients who received the anti-RANKL antibody. To determine the time course changes in the bone metabolic markers, we measured the serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b; a bone resorption marker) and the serum N-terminal propeptide of type 1 collagen (P1NP; a bone formation marker) levels prior to and 1 month after administrating the anti-RANKL antibody. To evaluable drug compliance, we assessed the dropout rate during treatment and at 6 months after treatment.
resultsThe average TRACP 5b level significantly decreased from 574.8 mU/dL before treatment to 153.2 mU/dL 1 month after treatment (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in the average P1NP level, which was 56.9 µG/L and 35.1 µG/L before and 1 month after treatment, respectively (p>0.05). As for drug compliance, we did not have any dropouts during the treatment or after 6 months (dropout rate: 0%).
conclusionsOur study suggests that anti-RANKL antibody treatment suppresses bone resorption and maintains bone formation.
