Warfarin-induced impairment of bone material quality in a patient undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe use of warfarin in patients undergoing hemodialysis is associated with decreased bone mineral density and an increased incidence of bone fracture. However, no studies to date have directly estimated bone quality with bone histomorphometry in patients with bone abnormalities who are taking warfarin and undergoing hemodialysis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 47-year-old female with Noonan syndrome presented with progressive bilateral lower extremity pain on walking, and skin sclerosis. She had been undergoing maintenance hemodialysis for 25 years following 2 years of peritoneal dialysis for chronic glomerulonephritis. She had been taking warfarin as an anticoagulant agent for 13 years after she underwent an aortic valve replacement. DIAGNOSIS: Warfarin-induced impairment of bone material quality. INTERVENTIONS AND OUTCOMES: Histomorphometric analysis of the bone biopsy specimens showed impairment in bone calcification processes, a high turnover of bone remodeling, low bone volume, and mild fibrosis. The bone abnormality could not be categorized into any type of representative bone disease classification such as osteitis fibrosa, osteomalacia, adynamic bone disease, uremic osteodystrophy, or hyperparathyroidism, but was consistent with warfarin-induced impairment of bone material quality.
conclusionWarfarin can induce impairment of bone material quality in a patient undergoing hemodialysis.
