Dietary protein intake and bone health.
Review in Journal of frailty, sarcopenia and falls, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Considerable attention has recently focused on dietary protein's role in the mature skeleton. The aim was to conduct a systematic review evaluating the effects of dietary protein intake alone on bone health measures in adults (Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and bone biomarkers. Searches across 3 databases were conducted through February 2019 including randomized controlled trials (RCT's) and prospective cohort studies examining the effects of ''high versus low'' protein intake. Studies in various populations are currently limited, varying doses and dietary compositions were used or prescribed, respectively, and there was medium risk of bias among the RCTs and the cohort studies examined. Moderate evidence suggested that higher protein intake may have protective effect on lumbar spine (LS) bone mineral density (BMD) compared with lower protein intake but no effect on total hip (TH), femoral neck (FN), or total body BMD or bone biomarkers. Current evidence shows no adv erse effects of higher protein intakes. Although there were positive trends on BMD at most bone cites, only the LS showed moderate evidence to support benefits of higher protein intake. Studies were heterogeneous. High-quality, long-term studies are needed to clarify dietary protein's role in bone health.
