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

Abnormal bone health and fragility fractures (FF) are more common in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We hypothesize that there may be risk factors in CLL patients with osteoporosis that increase the risk of FFs. We conducted a cohort study encompassing all patients diagnosed with CLL from January 1, 2000, to July 31, 2020, utilizing International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes related to abnormal bone health (osteopenia, osteoporosis, and/or presence of FF) within a single tertiary care institution. Of the 89 patients included, 55 (62%) were female with a mean age of 68 ± 11 years at cohort entry. Fifty-nine (66%) had at least one FF present (pFF) and 30 (34%) did not have an FF (nFF). There were no differences in IGHV (Immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region gene) mutation status, chromosomal abnormalities, or the presence of a complex karyotype. The spine accounted for 81% of identified FF.
