The Association between Tea Consumption and the Risk of Fracture: A Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies.

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
objectivesInconsistent results exist on the role of tea consumption on subsequent risk of fracture. A dose-response meta-analysis was therefore conducted to assess the association of tea consumption with the risk of fracture based on prospective cohort studies.
methodsThe electronic databases of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library were systematically searched to identify prospective cohort studies from inception until September 2020. The categories of high versus low and dose-response meta-analyses for tea consumption on the risk of fracture were calculated using the random-effects model. Eight prospective cohort studies recruited 774,134 individuals selected for the final meta-analysis.
resultsAn increment of 1 cup in tea consumption was not associated with the risk of fracture [relative risk (RR), 0.98; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.96-1.00; P = 0.102]. Moreover, the highest tea consumption category was associated with a reduced risk of fracture (RR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.88-0.98; P = 0.005). Furthermore, heavy (RR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.85-0.98; P = 0.008) and mild (RR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.94-1.00; P = 0.046) tea consumption were associated with lower risk of fracture. However, moderate tea consumption was not associated with the risk of fracture (RR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.94-1.02; P = 0.281).
conclusionThis study found that increased tea consumption may provide a protective role in the risk of fracture. The benefits of tea consumption should be further explored according to the characteristics of the individuals.
