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

backgroundAltered circulating levels and genetic variation of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), has been associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD) values and incidence of osteoporosis in peritoneal dialysis patients, renal transplant recipients, and postmenopausal women. The potential relationship of circulating BNP with osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), however, has not yet been studied.

methodsCirculating BNP levels were measured in 314 patients with T2DM, and participants were divided into normal BMD group (n = 73), osteopenia group (n = 120), and osteoporosis group (n = 121). The association of circulating BNP with diabetic osteoporosis and other parameters was analyzed.

resultsCirculating BNP was significantly higher in diabetic osteoporosis subjects than normal and osteopenia groups (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). Circulating BNP levels correlated significantly and positively with neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, systolic blood pressure, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio, and prevalence of hypertension, peripheral arterial disease, diabetic retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and nephropathy, and negatively with triglyceride, fasting blood glucose, lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, estimated glomerular filtration rate, bilirubin, osteoporosis self-assessment tool for Asians, BMD at different skeletal sites and corresponding T scores (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). After multivariate adjustment, circulating BNP remained independently significantly associated with the presence of osteoporosis (odds ratio, 2.710; 95% confidence interval, 1.690-4.344; P < 0.01). BMD at the femoral neck and total hip and corresponding T scores were progressively decreased, whereas the prevalence of osteoporosis was progressively increased with increasing BNP quartiles (P for trend< 0.01). Moreover, receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed that the optimal cutoff point of circulating BNP to indicate diabetic osteoporosis was 16.35 pg/ml.

conclusionsCirculating BNP level may be associated with the development of osteoporosis, and may be a potential biomarker for diabetic osteoporosis.
