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

Bone loss and bone fractures are common complications after organ transplantation. Many factors contribute to the pathogenesis of transplant osteoporosis, such as bone disease preceding transplantation, immunosuppressive medications, and nutritional and lifestyle factors. This study aimed to assess the incidence of vertebral fractures before and after lung and heart transplantation. This longitudinal study analyzed 213 electronic medical records of patients who underwent lung transplantation (
