Influencing factors of bone mass abnormalities among postmenopausal women in Tibet, China.
Article in BMC public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of abnormal bone mass in postmenopausal women by analysing the current situation and influencing factors of bone mass abnormalities in Tibet.
methodsA total of 229 postmenopausal Tibetan women were randomly selected from six counties by a multistage cluster random sampling method. Multiple logistic regression was utilized to analyse the status and influencing factors of bone mass abnormalities in postmenopausal Tibetan women.
resultsAmong 229 postmenopausal Tibetan women, the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis was 54.6% and 9.6%, respectively. Age {odds ratio (OR) = 0.022 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.003 ~ 0.163]}, BMI [OR = 441.902 (20.899,9343.717)], altitude [OR = 18.818 (1.391,254.585)], and creatinine (CREA) levels [OR = 0.895 (0.825 ~ 0.971)] were significantly associated with the risk of osteoporosis.
conclusionPostmenopausal Tibetan women had high rates of abnormal bone mass. Age, BMI, altitude and CREA levels were associated with osteoporosis. It is suggested that relevant departments should take targeted measures to promote health education on the prevention of osteoporosis in the general population and increase the screening of high-risk groups for osteoporosis to improve the bone health of postmenopausal Tibetan women.
