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
objectivesDietary protein intake is of great significance for the bone health of middle-aged and elderly people. This study is aimed to explore the relationships between dietary protein intake and the risk of osteoporosis in middle-aged and older individuals among US population.
methodsBased on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), this study includes a total of 20497 participants during 2005-2008, and identify 4707 middle-aged and older people aged 45 years or above. Demographic data and relevant dietary intake information are acquired through in-home management questionnaires. The logistic regression models are established to identify the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of OP in each quartile category of energy-adjusted dietary protein intake. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is applied to explore the optimal cut-off value of daily dietary protein intake for predicting risk of OP.
results442 participants with OP are identified among 4707 middle-aged and older people, and the dietary protein intake of OP group is significantly lower than that of non-OP group (P<0.001). The logistic regression analysis shows that with the increase of daily dietary protein intake, the prevalence of OP in each quartile category decreases gradually (P<0.001). This trend is not altered in univariate model (P<0.001), as well as the adjustments for the covariates of age and BMI (Model 1, P<0.001), the covariates of sex (Model 2, P=0.036), the covariates of smoking, drinking alcohol, education, ratio of family income to poverty, hypertension and diabetes (Model 3, P<0.001), and the covariates of dietary intake (Model 4, P=0.008). Moreover, we also identify that the daily dietary protein intake of 61.2g is the optimal cut-off value for predicting risk of OP.
conclusionIn general, among US population, the lower daily dietary protein intake is positively related to the ascending risk of OP in middle-aged and older individuals.
