Prevalence and risk factors of low bone mineral density in Chinese Han male patients with alcohol dependence.

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
objectiveTo investigate the prevalence of low bone mineral density (BMD) along with its possible risk factors in male Han Chinese patients with alcohol dependence (AD).
methodsThis retrospective, cross-sectional study included male patients with AD, classified into normal and low BMD groups according to bone densitometry T scores. Demographic and alcohol-related data, and routine laboratory parameters were compared between the two groups. Binary logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate risk factors associated with low BMD, and correlations between the T-score and demographic, alcohol-related, and routine laboratory data were evaluated.
resultsAmong a total of 107 patients with AD included in the study, the prevalence of low BMD was 70.09% (75/107). Patients with low BMD were older, consumed more alcohol daily, and had higher lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and lower Ca
conclusionIncreased daily alcohol intake, low serum Ca
