Urinary pentosidine level is associated with the risk of fracture in community-dwelling older adults: a prospective observational study.

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
A history of fracture in adulthood and urinary pentosidine levels were independently and significantly associated with fracture occurrence in this prospective observational study of community-dwelling older adults. PURPOSE: This prospective observational study aimed to determine the factors associated with fragility fractures in community-dwelling older adults.
methodsOverall, 254 older adults who were participants of the Good Aging and Intervention Against Nursing Care and Activity Decline study in 2016 were included in this study. Grip strength, muscle mass, gait speed, calcaneal bone density, and the levels of parathyroid hormone, osteocalcin, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, total procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b, and urinary pentosidine were measured at baseline. Participants were classified as fracture ( +) or fracture (-) based on the data collected during a 5-year follow-up period.
resultsExcluding those who were lost to follow-up during the observation period, 182 participants (64 men and 118 women, mean age: 74.2 years, range: 47-99 years) were included in the analysis. During the observation period, 23 patients experienced 24 new fractures. In univariate analysis, sex, height, weight, history of fracture in adulthood, baseline grip strength, muscle mass, bone density, and the levels of urinary pentosidine and IGF-1 at baseline were significantly different between patients who developed a fracture during follow-up and those who did not. In multivariate analysis, a history of fracture in adulthood and urinary pentosidine levels were independently and significantly associated with fracture occurrence.
conclusionHigh urine pentosidine levels and a history of fracture in adulthood are independent risk factors for fracture occurrence in community-dwelling older adults.
