Quantitative bone single photon emission computed tomography analysis of the effects of duration of bisphosphonate administration on the parietal bone.
Observational study in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Effects of long-term bisphosphonate (BP) administration on the metabolism of healthy bone and the concomitant changes in imaging are unclear. Hence, we aimed to retrospectively investigate the effects of long-term BP administration on the intact parietal bone using the standardised uptake value (SUV) derived from single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). We enrolled 29 patients who had odontogenic infection, osteoporosis, bone metastasis cancer, or rheumatoid arthritis, and classified them into BP-naïve: A (14 patients) and BP-treated: B, < 4 years (7 patients) and C, ≥ 4 years (8 patients) groups. We measured the maximum bilateral SUV (SUVmax) of the parietal bone using quantitative bone SPECT software. There were significant differences in the duration of BP administration and SUVmax of the parietal bone among the diseases (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.0086, respectively). There was a positive correlation between the duration of BP administration and SUVmax of the parietal bone (r
