The Fracture Liaison Service of the Virgen Macarena University Hospital Reduces the Gap in the Management of Osteoporosis, Particularly in Men. It Meets the International Osteoporosis Foundation Quality Standards.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo describe the Fracture Liaison Service (FLS), to know the characteristics of the patients attended with emphasis on sex differences, and to know the compliance of International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) quality standards.
methodsObservational, prospective research. All the consecutive patients that attended in usual clinical practice from May 2018 to October 2019, were over 50 years, and with a fragility fracture (FF), were included.
resultsOur FLS is a type A multidisciplinary unit. We included 410 patients, 80% women. FF recorded in 328 women were: Hip (132, 40%), Clinical Vertebral (81, 25%) and No hip No vertebral (115, 35%). Those in 82 men were: Hip (53, 66%), Clinical Vertebral (20, 24%) and No hip No vertebral (9, 10%),
conclusionsthe FLS narrowed the gap in diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of fragility fracture patients, especially men. The FLS meets the IOF quality standards.
