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

In a clinical trial involving Japanese patients with osteoporosis, post hoc analyses were performed to evaluate the incidence of acute phase reactions (APRs) after infusion of zoledronic acid (ZOL). The results highlighted differences in baseline factors between patients with vs without APRs. Changes in efficacy indicators such as bone turnover markers (BTMs) also showed significant differences. We, therefore, investigated the factors involved in the development of APRs in Japanese patients treated with a once-yearly intravenous infusion of ZOL 5 mg for 2 years by assessing the relation between APRs and efficacy. APRs reported in patients with primary osteoporosis from the ZONE study were analyzed post hoc. Baseline factors were compared in patients with vs without APRs, and changes in BTMs and bone mineral density (BMD) were also investigated. In the ZOL group, 51.2% (169/330) of patients developed APRs after the first infusion and 12.3% (33/268) after the second infusion. Comparison of baseline factors showed that patients without APRs in the ZOL group had a significantly higher neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, lower serum levels of procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide, older age, and higher likelihood of prior bisphosphonate use vs patients with APRs. Patients with APRs showed significantly higher increases in total hip BMD at 6 and 12 months and larger reductions in BTMs vs patients without APRs. Patient profiles differed significantly between patients with vs without APRs, with APRs after the first infusion of ZOL being related to increases in total hip BMD and suppression of BTMs.This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT01522521; January 31, 2012).
