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

Background: People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at high risk of fragility fractures; however, there are no randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of anti-osteoporosis drugs as a primary pre-specified endpoint in T2D. Objectives: To compare the efficacy of anti-osteoporotic drugs in postmenopausal women with T2D. Design: Prospective, randomized, open, blinded endpoint clinical pilot trial. Methods: Postmenopausal women (⩾50 years) with T2D (duration ⩾5 years), HbA1c 7-10%, eGFR ⩾45 mL/min/1.73 m Ethics: The study has been approved by the Institute Ethics Committee. Written informed consent will be obtained from each participant. Discussion: The trial is expected to provide information regarding optimal anti-osteoporotic therapy in people with T2D and bone fragility. Registration: Prospectively registered in Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2022/02/039978).
