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

Introduction: Nephrolithiasis is associated with an increased fracture risk, but predictors of bone mineral density (BMD) in stone formers (SFs) remain poorly defined. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis in the Bern Kidney Stone Registry (BKSR), an observational cohort of kidney SFs. Inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years and ≥1 past stone episode. Participants with non-calcium (Ca)-containing kidney stones, a history of primary hyperparathyroidism or antiresorptive or anabolic bone treatment were excluded. Multivariable linear regression analyses were used to assess the association of blood and 24-hours urine parameters and stone composition with BMD at the lumbar spine and femoral neck. Results: In the analysis, 504 participants were included, mean age was 46 years, and 76% were male. In multivariable analyses, fasting (β: -0.031; Conclusion: Our study reveals distinct predictors of BMD in SFs. Commonly available clinical parameters, such as kidney stone composition results, can be used to identify SFs at risk for low BMD.
