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

An expert center for adults with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) has been founded at the Isala Hospital in Zwolle, the Netherlands to achieve optimal care for adults with OI. Clinical data such as patient history, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry measurements and laboratory findings are collected with patient consent. This study provides an overview of clinical characteristics of the patients who visited the clinic during its first 5 years, a total of 151 patients. In this study, we focus on bisphosphonate use and bone density measurements at time of presentation at the expert center. As such, insight into the natural history of OI in adults will be increased. Analysing the data of a large group of adults with this rare disorder within a national expert center will allow detailed exploration of the course of OI over time.
