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

background and purposeHealth professions that previously focused on treatment of patients are now focusing on prevention and health provision by improving lifestyle and eliminating factors that somehow have a negative impact on human health. Some people have strong skeleton genetically, but others do not. So far, medical science has not been able to change the genetic characteristics of individuals; however, lifestyles can be changed to reach the maximum bone mass. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between lifestyle and pathologic fractures in patients admitted to surgery departments of selected Hospitals in 2014-2015. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this descriptive (correlational) study, using the Cochran sampling formula, 350 patients with fractures were selected by stratified sampling in surgery departments of selected hospitals affiliated to Alborz University of Medical Sciences. Data were collected using the standard lifestyle questionnaire, which was validated through the test-retest method. The qualitative data of this project were analyzed using SPSS 20 software at a significance level of 0.05.

resultsMost of the subjects were in the age group of 72-85 years which included 103 (26.8%) people. In all, 187 (48.6%) subjects were male and 198 (51.4%) subjects were female. A total of 83 (21.6%) participants were in the healthy group, 123 (32.0%) subjects were in the osteoporosis group, 113 (29.3%) subjects were in the bone infection group, and 66 (17.1%) individuals were in the general bone disease group.

conclusionAll studied components including smoking, physical activity, and nutrition directly affect pathologic fractures.
