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

objectivesTo examine the association between Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) use and falls and fractures.

designA cross-sectional study. SETTING AND

participants400 female patients aged 70 years or older who were consecutively admitted to the Trauma Center Meidling, Vienna, after a fall and who required hospital admission.

methodsWe quantified the strength of the associations between PPI use and falls, and between PPI use and fractures, using a logistic regression.

resultsuse of PPIs was significantly associated with risk of recurrent falls (OR 1.92, 95% CI = 1.05 - 3.50, p = 0.04) as well as with risk of a fracture (OR 2.15, 95% CI 1.10 - 4.21, p = 0.03).

conclusionsIn conclusion, our results provide further evidence that PPI use may increase risk of falls and fractures in older women and highlight the need for clinicians to reassess the original indication and the need for continuation of PPIs on a regular basis.
