Effects of acupoint catgut embedding on the postmenopausal osteoporosis patients and related mechanism.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. 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
objectiveTo study the effect and mechanism of acupoint catgut embedding on patients of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP).
methodsIn this prospective study, 90 patients with PMOP who received treatment in our hospital were randomly divided into the drug treatment group (n=45) and drug treatment + catgut embedding group (n=45) according to SPSS random table method. The drug treatment group was given conventional western medicine treatment, and the drug treatment + catgut embedding group was given point embedding therapy. Bone mineral density (BMD), calcium (Ca
resultsAt 3 and 6 months after treatment, the BMD and the levels of Ca
conclusionAcupoint catgut embedding has a good effect on PMOP, and it can increase BMO and improve the clinical symptoms of patients, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
