Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors attenuates osteoporosis in patients with diabetes: A nationwide, retrospective, matched-cohort study in Taiwan.
Article in Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
backgroundPatients with diabetes have a relatively high risk of fracture due to osteoporosis. However, the risk of osteoporosis associated with the use of oral hypoglycemic drugs and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) by patients with diabetes is unclear. This study aimed to explore the effect of DPP-4i on the risk of osteoporosis in Taiwanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
methodsThis study enrolled 6339 patients on DPP-4i (DPP-4i group) and 25 356 patients without DPP-4i (non-DPP-4i group). They were matched by 1:4 propensity score matching, using confounding variables including sex, age, comorbidities, medication, and index year. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to compare hospitalization and mortality during an average follow-up period of 7 years.
resultsThe mean age of patients in the two groups was 66 years. Men were slightly higher in number (51.79%) than women. At the end of the follow-up period, 113 (0.36%) patients had osteoporosis, of which 15 (0.24%) were in the case group and 98 (0.39%) in the control group. The risk of all-cause osteoporosis was significantly lower in the DPP-4i group than in the non-DPP-4i group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.616; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.358-0.961; p = 0.011). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the preventive effect on osteoporosis was positively correlated with the cumulative dose of DPP-4i (log-rank, p = 0.039) with the class effect.
conclusionCompared with not using DPP-4i, the use of DPP-4i in Taiwanese T2DM patients was associated with a lower risk of osteoporosis due to the class effect, and the preventive effect was dose-dependent. However, larger prospective studies are needed to validate this finding and to explore the possible mechanism of the preventive effect of DPP-4i.
