Factors associated with non-adherence to dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry screening during the COVID-19 pandemic in an academic medical center.
Article in Archives of osteoporosis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study explored why some elderly females do not adhere to their bone density tests. It found that factors like age, race, marital status, insurance type, social vulnerability index, and vaccination status influence completion of these tests. Addressing these differences could improve the management of bone health in older adults. PURPOSE: This study investigated factors influencing the cancellation of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans among females aged 65 and above during the COVID-19 pandemic.
methodsUtilizing a dataset of 19,066 females from 2021 to 2023, the research employed chi-squared tests and logistic regression analyses to examine demographic, socio-economic, and health-related determinants of DXA scan adherence.
resultsKey findings revealed that younger seniors, White patients, married individuals, those with commercial/private or Medicare insurance, and vaccinated persons were more likely to complete DXA scans. In contrast, Asian and African American females, along with those from higher Social Vulnerability Index areas, showed lower completion rates.
conclusionThese results highlight the need for tailored strategies to improve osteoporosis screening adherence, focusing on identified demographic groups to enhance overall healthcare outcomes in osteoporosis management.
