A Five-Year Retrospective Audit on Bone Protection Prescribing in Patients With Fragility Fractures in Primary Care.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background Fragility fractures typically occur in the elderly population due to low-energy trauma in the context of underlying osteoporotic bone disease. These fractures are becoming increasingly more common as the population of the United Kingdom ages, representing a significant public health issue. In the community, a joint care approach is adopted between general practitioners and fracture liaison services for the management of patients with fragility fractures. Despite this, preventive care for these patients remains substandard. This project aimed to conduct an audit of patients with a coded diagnosis of a fragility fracture in our primary care practice to ascertain fracture type and the prescription of bone protective agents. When necessary, the appropriate therapy was commenced per best practice guidelines. Methodology A search of patients with the diagnosis of
