Bone mineral density is associated with left ventricular diastolic function in women.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundLow bone mineral density (BMD) and left ventricular (LV) diastolic function are associated with heart failure. However, little is known about the association between BMD and LV diastolic function. HYPOTHESIS: BMD is independently related to LV diastolic function in women.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study of 432 women. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and BMD measurements were performed. LV diastolic function and structure were assessed by echocardiographic examination.
resultsBaPWV and the percentage of LV diastolic dysfunction increased with progressive bone loss. Moreover, partial correlation analysis demonstrated that BMD at spine L2-4 and at femoral neck were correlated with baPWV and LV diastolic function parameters after adjusting covariates. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that osteoporosis was independently associated with LV diastolic dysfunction in women.
conclusionsOsteoporosis is independently associated with LV diastolic dysfunction in women. A prospective study is needed to elucidate the effects of BMD on cardiac function in women.
