Effect of Secondhand Smoking, Determined by Urinary Cotinine Level on Bone Health.
Article in International journal of preventive medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundWe evaluated the relationship between secondhand smoke (SHS) inhalation, as verified by urinary cotinine levels, and bone health.
methodsWe analyzed the nationwide, population-based, cross-sectional health survey. We included 1936 men aged 50 years or older who checked bone mineral density (BMD) from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2008-2010). Current smokers assessed by urinary cotinine levels higher than 500 ng/mL were excluded (
resultsThe estimated prevalence of SHS exposure in our cohort was 13.9%. After adjusting for age and body mass index (BMI), T-scores at total femur (
conclusionsOur findings suggest that SHS exposure, determined by urinary cotinine levels, is negatively associated with BMD and is a leading cause of impaired bone health in Korean men.
