Association of vitamins with bone mineral density and osteoporosis measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundWe aimed to assess the associations of vitamins intake with osteoporosis based on a national sample from US adults.
methodsA total of 1536 participants were included in this cross-sectional study to investigate the relationship between vitamins intake and osteoporosis from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, including vitamin A, C, D. Logistic regression models were used to assess the associations between dietary vitamin intake and osteoporosis.
resultsWe found that vitamins intake were negatively associated with osteoporosis. For vitamin A, compared with the first tertile, the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidential intervals (CIs) were 0.93 (0.81-1.04) for the second tertile and 0.85 (0.78-0.96) for the third tertile (P < 0.01). For vitamin C, compared with the first tertile, the ORs and 95% CIs were 0.89 (0.78-1.05) for the second tertile and 0.79 (0.67-0.93) for the third tertile (P < 0.01). For vitamin D, compared with the first tertile, the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidential intervals (CIs) were 0.94 (0.82-1.07) for the second tertile and 0.88 (0.75-0.98) for the third tertile (P < 0.01). And the negative association between vitamins intake and osteoporosis were more evident for female, aged ≥ 60, and BMI > 30, including vitamin A, C and D.
conclusionsOur findings provide evidence that vitamins intake is linked with decreased prevalence of osteoporosis, including vitamin A, C, D. Further large-scale prospective cohort studies are needed to verify our findings.
