Quality of Life in Women over 65 Years of Age Diagnosed with Osteoporosis.
Observational study in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
(1) Background: Today's society is moving towards active aging, underlining the importance of understanding and improving quality of life (QoL). This QoL in women over the age of 65 years diagnosed with osteoporosis was compared with the QoL of the general population, and risk factors for osteoporosis related to QoL were identified. (2) Methods: This is an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study with a personal interview. The study population was 704 women over 65 years of age diagnosed with osteoporosis as of 1 November 2018, based on medical records from four health centers of the eastern Valladolid urban health area. This was a random sample of 247 women stratified by health center. Information on osteoporosis risk factors, comorbidities, daily lifestyle habits, and QoL assessed with the EQ-5D was collected. QoL was modeled using sociodemographic variables, lifestyle, and clinical variables. (3) Results: Women with osteoporosis had a positive perception of their health (EQ-5D% VAS 64.9 ± 18.31). High EQ-5D QoL scores were obtained on the dimensions of mobility: 51.6% [95% CI (44.2%, 58.9%)]; self-care: 75.3% [95% CI (68.5%, 81.2%)]; activities of daily living: 71.4% [95% CI (64.4%, 77.6%)]; pain/discomfort: 25.8% [95% CI (19.8%, 32.6%)]; and anxiety/depression: 53.8% [95% CI (46.4%, 61.0%)]. (4) Conclusions: The QoL of the study group was no worse than the QoL of the general population, except for pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Age, highest educational level reached, inflammatory diseases, physical activity, and insomnia were independent predictors of QoL in women with osteoporosis.
