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
introductionAvailable evidence on favorable nutritional factors for preventing osteoporosis remains controversial. Considering the recent increases in life expectancy, we investigated the relationship between incident osteoporotic fractures and dietary habits in early and late postmenopausal phase women. MATERIALS AND
methodsSubjects were Japanese postmenopausal outpatients recruited at a primary care institution in Nagano Prefecture (Nagano Cohort Study). Patients with critical or acute illness or secondary osteoporosis were not included in this study. In total, 1,071 participants were prospectively followed for a mean of 5.8 years. The cohort was divided into early (≤ 70 years) and late (> 70 years) postmenopausal phases based on median age. Dietary nutrient intake was estimated by the food frequency questionnaire method. According to baseline nutrient intake characteristics, we focused on protein/energy and Ca/NaCl intake ratios, which were also divided by the median values.
resultsKaplan-Meier plots revealed a significantly higher occurrence of fractures for the high protein/energy intake group in early postmenopausal subjects (P = 0.009), whereas the low Ca/NaCl intake group in late postmenopausal subjects exhibited a significantly earlier occurrence of fractures (P = 0.002). Multivariate Cox regression uncovered significant independent risks of higher protein/energy (HR 1.35; 95% CI 1.04-1.74) and lower Ca/NaCl (HR 0.79; 95% CI 0.63-0.99) intake ratios for incident osteoporotic fractures in the early and late postmenopausal cohorts, respectively.
conclusionDistinct dietary risk factors for osteoporotic fractures were identified in early and late postmenopausal phase women. Appropriate nutritional guidance according to patient age will be important for maintaining bone health and quality of life.
