The comparison of bone mineral density of femoral head between non-hip fracture side and hip fracture side.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We aimed to analyze the associations of bone mineral density (BMD) of femoral heads, age and gender, and compare the differences in BMD between fracture side and non-fracture side by "3D Spine Exam Analysis" module in QCT Pro software. In this study, we identified patients who had undergone quantitative computed tomography (QCT) examinations between March 2016 and July 2018 and measured their trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD) of femoral heads. This retrospective study enrolled 367 subjects. A total of 149 participants with images were randomly selected to verify the repeatability of this method. The relationship among the vBMD, age and gender was analyzed (n = 367), and the difference of vBMD between non-fracture side and fracture side were studied in subjects (n = 75) with low-energy hip fracture on one side and compared the image quality of bilateral hip joints. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between the results measured by 2 operators and the results measured by the same operator showed excellent agreement (ICCs > 0.9). Multivariate regression equation of vBMD of femoral head, age and gender showed statistical significance (P < 0.05). vBMD showed negative correlation with age (P < 0.05), and showed no statistically significant relation with gender (P > 0.05). vBMD of non-fracture side was higher than that of fracture side, but the difference was statistically significant only at the middle layer (P
