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

objectiveTo obtain the cortex and cancellous parameter of the vertebral bone of healthy subjects using QCT. To explore which is earlier or faster for bone loss with age. MATERIALS AND

methods733 physical examiners underwent chest low-dose CT examination were recruited, from April 1, 2021 to October 1, 2021. QCT sequence was used to obtain the bone mineral density of T12-L2 vertebral body without additional radiation. The mass and area of vertebral cortex and cancellous at the central level of L2 vertebral body were measured. The age -related characteristics of vertebral cortex and cancellous between male and female was analyzed and compared.

resultsThe vBMD of T12-L2 vertebral body decreased with age. Significant differences were found in volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of T12-L2 vertebral body. For female, significant differences were found in bone content involving cortical mass, cancellous mass, cortical area, cancellous area, cortical mass/cancellous mass and cortical area/cancellous area in different age groups, respectively. The cortical mass decreased with age in female. The cancellous mass of female increased and then decreased with peak at 31-40 y. The cortical area of female decreased gradually before 71 y. The cancellous area of female increased and then decreased with peak at 51-60 y. The values of mass ratio and area ratio in female showed a slowly downward trend with age. Significant differences of bone content between non-menopausal and menopausal women were found except the cancellous mass. For male, no significant differences were found in all parameters of bone content.

conclusionThe changes of vertebral BMD, bone content of cortex and cancellous have different characteristics in different age. The change of cortex in female maybe earlier and faster than that of cancellous, especially in menopausal women.
