Body mass index, height, and osteoporotic fracture risk in community-dwelling Japanese people aged 40-74 years.
Article in Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
introductionThe association between body size and fracture risk is complex and varies by sex and ethnicity. This study aimed to examine associations of body mass index (BMI) and height with osteoporotic fracture risk in middle-aged and older people. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis 10-year cohort study included 13,151 community-dwelling Japanese people aged 40-74 years. A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted at baseline to obtain information on demographic characteristics, body size, lifestyle, and disease history. BMI (kg/m
resultsMean participant age was 58.8 years. In men, the underweight group had a significantly higher hazard ratio (HR) for total fracture (adjusted HR = 2.46), and the obese group had significantly higher HRs for total (adjusted HR = 3.01) and vertebral (HR = 3.77) fractures relative to the reference (overweight) group. No significant associations were observed between BMI and risk of any fracture in women. Higher quartiles of height were associated with higher vertebral fracture risk (adjusted P for trend = 0.023) only in women.
conclusionBMI and osteoporotic fracture risk showed a U-shaped association in men, whereas higher height was associated with higher vertebral fracture risk in women, suggesting sex-dependent differences in these associations.
