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
The population-based cohort study used the Korean National Health Insurance claims database to evaluate the effect of anti-diabetic drugs on osteoporosis. The use of DPP-IV inhibitors does not increase the risk of osteoporosis compared with the use of sulfonylureas in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, while a weak association was found between thiazolidinediones and increased risk of osteoporosis. PURPOSE: The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors (DPP-IVi), thiazolidinedione (TZD), and sulfonylurea (SU) on osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.
methodsA population-based cohort study was conducted in the Republic of Korea using the Korean National Health Insurance claims database. Data from 2012 to 2017 for patients of 50-99 years of age who were prescribed DPP-IVi, TZD, or SU during 2013-2015 were extracted from the database. Based on pre-defined criteria, a total of 381,404 patients were analyzed after inverse probability of treatment weighting. The association between the study drugs and osteoporosis was estimated using Cox proportional hazards models. Data of 220,166 patients who were prescribed DPP-IVi, 18,630 who were prescribed TZD, and 142,608 patients who were prescribed SU were set.
resultsIn the multivariate-adjusted analysis, the hazard ratio (HR) of osteoporosis in the DPP-IVi group was not significantly different from that of the SU group (HR: 0.97; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.94-1.00), whereas the HR of osteoporosis in the TZD group was higher (HR: 1.13; 95% CI 1.06-1.20). In the subgroup analysis, the HRs of osteoporosis were higher with pioglitazone (HR: 1.14; 95% CI 1.06-1.23) in the TZD group and with glibenclamides (HR: 1.39; 95% CI 1.09-1.77) in the SU group, whereas drugs with lower HR in the DPP-IVi group were saxagliptin (HR: 0.93; 95% CI 0.87-0.99) and sitagliptin (HR: 0.93; 95% CI 0.89-0.97).
conclusionDPP-IV inhibitors do not increase the risk of osteoporosis compared with sulfonylureas in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, while a weak association was found between thiazolidinediones and increased risk of osteoporosis.
