Circulating noggin levels following treatment with denosumab or teriparatide in postmenopausal women with low bone mass.
Observational study in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesNoggin inactivates bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), possibly exerting negative effects on the skeleton.We aimed to compare the effect of agents with opposite impact on bone turnover on noggin circulating levels.
methodsIn this observational, open label, non-randomized clinical study postmenopausal women with low bone mass were treated with either denosumab (n=30) or teriparatide (n=30). Serum samples were obtained at baseline, three and twelve months after treatment initiation. Prevalent fractures were recorded at baseline and lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS BMD) was measured at baseline and twelve months. Measured parameters included noggin, BMP-2, BMP-4, procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) and C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTx).
resultsNoggin levels remained unchanged after either denosumab or teriparatide treatment. Baseline noggin levels were not different between women with vs. without previous anti-osteoporotic treatment, or between those with vs. without vertebral or non-vertebral fractures and were not correlated with age or LS BMD. At twelve months, noggin levels were positively correlated with P1NP within the denosumab (r
conclusionsIn postmenopausal women with low bone mass noggin levels were not correlated with bone parameters at any time point, except with P1NP at 12 months, and remained stable with both denosumab and teriparatide treatment.
