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

(1) Background: Bone plays an important role in the regulation of the systemic glucose and energy metabolism. Sclerostin, secreted by osteocytes, is an inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin bone metabolic pathway, and is involved in osteoporosis and metabolic disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sclerostin and anthropometric and metabolic parameters in children and adolescents with obesity or who are overweight. (2) Methods: This study included 63 children and adolescents (20 obese, 11 overweight and 32 healthy control subjects). We evaluated the correlation between serum sclerostin and anthropometric parameters, metabolic parameters related to glucose (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance [HOMA-IR]), lipid, and bone metabolism (osteocalcin and 25-hydroxy vitamin D). (3) Results: Sclerostin and osteocalcin levels did not differ between obese and control groups. Sclerostin level was higher in boys than in girls (median 20.7 vs. 18.9 pmol/L, respectively;
