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

Osteoporotic fracture associated with calcium dysregulation is more common in patients with kidney stones. However, little is known about the association of kidney stones and bone health status in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This retrospective medical record-based study included 2282 patients with stable stage 3-4 CKD between 2007 and 2017. Of these, 113 patients were diagnosed with kidney stones. Propensity score matching for 226 patients with and without kidney stones showed that osteoporotic fracture occurred more often in patients with kidney stones (33, 29.2%) than in patients without kidney stones (16, 14.2%), resulting in rates of 5.56 and 2.63/100 patient-years, respectively (p < 0.01). In particular, Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that kidney stones were significantly associated with osteoporotic fracture, even after adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, kidney stones, estimated glomerular filtration rate, excessive alcohol consumption, current smoking, and steroid use in patients with CKD stage 3-4 (hazard ratio, 2.32, 95% CI 1.24-4.34, p = 0.01). This study showed that the presence of kidney stones was a significant predictor for osteoporotic fracture in patients with CKD, suggesting that it should be considered as a clinical risk factor for osteoporotic fracture in them.
