Differences in tissue-level properties as assessed by nano-scratching in patients with and without atypical femur fractures on long-term bisphosphonate therapy: a proof-of-concept pilot study.
Article in JBMR plus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Atypical femur fractures (AFFs) are a well-established complication of long-term bisphosphonate (BP) therapy, but their pathogenesis is not fully understood. Although many patients on long-term BP therapy have severe suppression of bone turnover (SSBT), not all such patients experience AFF, even though SSBT is a major contributor to AFF. Accordingly, we evaluated tissue level properties using nano-scratch testing of trans-iliac bone biopsy specimens in 12 women (6 with and 6 without AFF matched for age and race). Nano-scratch data were analyzed using a mixed-model ANOVA with volume-normalized scratch energy as a function of AFF (Yes or No), region (periosteal or endosteal), and a first-order interaction between region and AFF. Tukey post hoc analyses of the differences of least squared means of scratch energy were performed and reported as significant if
