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.

Abstract

The menopause transition is a critical period for bone health in women, with rapid losses in bone mass and strength occurring over an approximately 3-year window bracketing the date of the final menstrual period. The onset of the rapid bone loss phase is preceded by large changes in sex steroid hormones, measurements of which may be clinically useful in predicting the onset of the rapid loss phase and identifying the women who will lose the most bone mass during this rapid bone loss phase. Here we summarize recent and new findings related to the ability of sex hormone levels to (1) determine if a woman in her 5th decade of life is about to enter or has already entered the rapid phase of bone loss, and (2) if she will lose more than the average amount of bone mass over the menopause transition.
