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

Higher levels of apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) were associated with higher risk of osteoporosis, which supports the argument that lipid metabolism is involved in bone metabolism.

backgroundAlthough the current evidence shows that lipid metabolism and osteoporosis are closely related to cardiovascular disease, the association between ApoA1 and osteoporosis is still unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between ApoA1 and osteoporosis.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we included 7743 participants in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. ApoA1 was regarded as an exposure variable and osteoporosis was considered as an outcome variable. Multivariate logistic regression analysis, sensitivity analysis, and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) were used to assess the association of ApoA1 with osteoporosis.

resultsParticipants with higher ApoA1 had higher rates of osteoporosis compared to participants with lower ApoA1 (P <  0.05). Individuals with osteoporosis had higher levels of ApoA1 than individuals without osteoporosis (P <  0.05). In multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, race, hypertension, diabetes, gout, hypotensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, blood urea nitrogen, albumin, uric acid, hemoglobin A1c, alkaline phosphatase and total calcium, higher ApoA1 was strongly associated with higher risk of osteoporosis, whether as a continuous variable or a categorical variable [Model 3, OR (95% CI), P value: 2.289 (1.350, 3.881), 0.002 and 1.712 (1.183, 2.478), 0.004]. And after excluding individuals with gout, the correlation between them remained and was significant (P <  0.01). And ROC analysis also showed that ApoA1 could predict the development of osteoporosis (AUC = 0.650, P <  0.001).

conclusionApoA1 was closely associated with osteoporosis.
