Fragility Fractures and Cortisol Secretion in Patients With Nonfunctioning Adrenal Incidentalomas.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Context: The risk of vertebral fractures (VFx) in patients with nonfunctioning adrenal incidentalomas (NFAI) is unknown. Objective: This work aimed to assess in NFAI patients the prevalence and incidence of VFx and a hormonal marker to identify patients at risk. Methods: A retrospective, cross-sectional, and longitudinal study of outpatients was conducted. A total of 306 NFAI patients (cross-sectional arm) and 213 controls were evaluated for VFx prevalence; 85 NFAI patients (longitudinal arm, follow-up 30.3 ± 17.5 months) were evaluated for VFx incidence. Main outcome measures included serum cortisol after 1 mg-dexamethasone test (F-1mgDST), lumbar spinal (LS), and femoral neck (FN) bone mineral density (BMD) and VFx presence, by radiograph of the spine. Results: Cross-sectional arm: prevalent VFx associated with F-1mgDST with a cutoff of 1.2 µg/dL (33 nmol/L, area under the curve 0.620 ± 0.39; Conclusion: In NFAI patients, F-1mgDST levels greater than or equal to 1.2 µg/L (33 nmol/L) are associated with prevalent VFx and may identify patients at risk of incident VFx.
