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

Despite the availability of safe and effective anti-osteoporosis treatments, osteoporosis continues to be undertreated. The increase in fragility fractures, which is the main clinical consequence of osteoporosis, is a major problem for healthcare systems of countries. A broad range of drugs including antiresorptive and anabolic agents are used in the pharmacological treatment of osteoporosis. Fracture risk assessment in drug selection is of utmost importance in terms of guiding treatment. The recommended thresholds for osteoporosis treatment decision making are based on major osteoporotic and hip fracture probabilities from the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX®). Currently, antiresorptive agents are usually the first choice to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and reduce the fracture risk. Bisphosphonates and antiresorptive drugs such as denosumab, a nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) inhibitor, are the most widely used drugs in the treatment of osteoporosis. Bisphosphonates alone are unlikely to provide long-term protection against fracture and restore BMD in patients with severe osteoporosis and high fracture risk. In such patients, treatment with an anabolic agent such as teriparatide, abaloparatide, or romosozumab should be ideally initiated to achieve maximal gain in bone mass and preserve the microarchitecture. Ideally, an antiresorptive drug should be continued to maintain gain in bone mass.
