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

backgroundHormonal disorders are often associated with abnormal levels of bone turnover markers (BTMs). N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) and serum C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I) are the reference markers of bone formation and bone resorption, respectively.

methodsA comprehensive literature search within the MEDLINE and Web of Science databases was performed.

resultsAcromegaly is associated with higher BTM levels, which decrease during the remission after treatment. Adult-onset growth hormone deficiency is often associated with decreased BTM levels. Growth hormone replacement therapy stimulates bone turnover and increases BTM levels. Hypothyroidism is characterized by general slowing of bone metabolism which is reflected by lower BTM levels. The replacement thyroid hormone therapy increases the bone turnover rate and BTM levels increase. Patients with thyroid cancer receive a suppressive dose of thyroid hormones and may have slightly elevated BTM levels. Patients with overt hyperthyroidism had higher BTM levels and anti-thyroid therapy induces a rapid decrease in the BTM levels. Patients with overt primary hyperparathyroidism have higher BTM levels, whereas those with asymptomatic and normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism usually have normal BTM levels. Hypoparathyroidism is characterized by slightly decreased BTM levels. Cushing's syndrome is characterized consistently by markedly decreased osteocalcin concentration, whereas data on other BTMs are discordant.

conclusionsBTMs help us to better understand mechanisms of the impact of hormonal disorders and their treatment on bone metabolism. However, it is unknown whether BTMs may be used to monitor the effect of their treatments on bone in the clinical practice.
