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

purposeTo develop and validate prediction models for low and very low bone mineral density (BMD) on the basis of clinical and treatment characteristics that identify adult survivors of childhood cancer who require screening by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. PATIENTS AND

methodsWhite survivors of childhood cancer (n = 2,032; median attained age, 29.3 years [range, 18.1 to 40.9 years]) enrolled in the St Jude Lifetime Cohort (SJLIFE; development) and survivors treated at the Erasmus Medical Center (validation) in the Netherlands (n = 403; median age, 24.2 years [range, 18.0 to 40.9 years]) were evaluated with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry to determine lumbar spine BMD and total-body BMD. Low and very low BMD were defined as lumbar spine BMD and/or total-body BMD

resultsLow BMD was present in 51% and 45% of SJLIFE and Dutch participants, respectively, and very low BMD was present in 20% and 10%, respectively. The model for low BMD included male sex (odds ratio [OR], 3.07), height (OR, 0.95), weight (OR, 0.98), attained age (OR, 0.97), current smoking status (OR, 1.48), and cranial irradiation (OR, 2.11). Areas under the curve were 0.72 (95% CI, 0.70 to 0.75) in the SJLIFE cohort and 0.69 (95% CI, 0.64 to 0.75) in the Dutch cohort. The sum of the sensitivity (69.0%) and specificity (64.0%) was maximal at the predicted probability of 50%. The model for very low BMD included male sex (OR, 3.28), height (OR, 0.95), weight (OR, 0.97), attained age (OR, 0.98), cranial irradiation (OR, 2.07), and abdominal irradiation (OR, 1.61), yielding areas under the curve of 0.76 (95% CI, 0.73 to 0.78; SJLIFE cohort) and 0.75 (95% CI, 0.67 to 0.83; Dutch cohort).

conclusionValidated prediction models for low and very low BMD, using easily measured patient and treatment characteristics, correctly identified BMD status in most white adult survivors through age 40 years.
