The risk of osteoporotic fractures after gastrectomy: Findings from the Korean national sample cohort database (2002-2019).

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
Objective: This study used a national sample cohort database to investigate the risk of osteoporotic fractures after gastrectomy is performed for gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: We used data from the Korea National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort between 2002 and 2019. After performing 1:3 propensity score matching, 28,328 individuals were analysed in the final study (7, 082 cases; 21, 246 controls). Gastrectomy data were extracted from the coded claims data, and osteoporotic fractures were defined as the occurrence of fractures in any of the vertebrae, distal radius, humerus, or hip, according to the 10th version of the International Classification of Diseases. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was generated to investigate the association between gastrectomy and risk of osteoporotic fractures. Results: Patients with gastric cancer who underwent a gastrectomy had a higher risk of osteoporotic fractures as compared to the general population (men, hazard ratio [HR]: 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00-1.27; women, HR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.06-1.30). A significantly higher risk of osteoporotic fractures was observed with surgical resection than with endoscopic resection (men, surgical, HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.08-1.52, endoscopic, HR: 1.04, 95% CI: 0.90-1.21; women, surgical, HR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.11-1.62, endoscopic, HR: 1.13, 95% CI: 1.01-1.27). In men, the risk of hip fracture was the highest among the four fracture sites (HR: 1.18, 95% CI:0.89-1.56), while in women, the risk of vertebral fracture after gastrectomy was the highest (HR: 1.16, 95% CI: 0.99-1.35). Conclusion: Patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy had a higher risk of osteoporotic fractures as compared to the general population. This suggests the need for bone metabolism management in patients with gastric cancer to prevent post-gastrectomy complications.
