Analyses of the association between breast cancer and osteoporosis/fracture history: a cross-sectional study using KoGES HEXA data.
Article in Archives of osteoporosis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We performed a nationwide, population-based cohort study to evaluate the risk of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture in patients with breast cancer using the data from Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) and concluded that Korean women with breast cancer had a higher risk of osteoporosis than healthy women, regardless of age. PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the association between breast cancer and the occurrence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture using data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES).
methodsUsing the national KoGES health examinee (HEXA) data consisting of data from urban resident participants ≥ 40 years old, we extracted data for patients with breast cancer (n = 1080) and for control participants (n = 106,993); we then analyzed the occurrence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture at baseline from 2004 to 2013 and during follow-up from 2012 to 2016. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the odds ratios (ORs) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analysis was performed based on age (younger group aged ≤ 51 years old; older group aged ≥ 52 years old).
resultsThe ORs (95% CIs) for osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture were 1.54 (95% CI = 1.28-1.84, P < 0.001) and 1.01 (95% CI = 0.82-1.23, P = 0.949), respectively, in the breast cancer group. In the subgroup analysis based on age, the ORs (95% CIs) for osteoporosis were 2.41 (95% CI = 1.70-3.43, P < 0.001) in the younger group and 1.33 (95% CI = 1.08-1.64, P = 0.007) in the older group of breast cancer patients. The ORs (95% CIs) for osteoporotic fracture were 1.15 (95% CI = 0.81-1.63, P = 0.441) in the younger group and 0.95 (95% CI = 0.74-1.21, P = 0.661) in the older group of breast cancer patients.
conclusionWe concluded that Korean women with breast cancer had a higher risk of osteoporosis than healthy women, but the same finding was not observed for osteoporotic fracture, regardless of age.
