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

The present review gives a summary of recent epidemiological data on osteoporosis and the state of the quality of care especially regarding older adults. The results show that three quarters of all patients with vertebral and peripheral fractures are older than 65 years. Regarding hip fractures three out of four patients are older than 70 years. The association between age and fractures results as a direct consequence of the practically invariably present underlying osteoporosis and frequent falls in older adults.In Germany the prevalence of osteoporosis among women aged over 50 years is given as 24% and among men as 6%. In contrast to men where the incidence continues to rise, there is a small decrease of the incidence of hip fractures among women. Despite this decrease an enormous increase in both sexes is expected caused by the ongoing demographic changes with substantial socioeconomic consequences.Despite this development, the treatment rates of patients with osteoporosis or fragility fractures have remained low for many years. In contrast, national and international studies have shown that the rate of subsequent fractures could be reduced by up to 50% by using various measures to improve osteoporosis care, such as a fracture liaison service, providing adherence is maintained by the patients.
