Clinical significance of trabecular bone score of DXA in hip fracture patients-comparative study between trochanteric fractures and neck fractures.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
backgroundStudies have shown that the clinical efficacy of TBS (Trabecular Bone Score) of DXA in hip fracture patients. This study aimed to investigate the difference of TBS in trochanteric fractures and femoral neck fractures in hip fracture patients.
methodsData were derived from the University affiliated hospital, the participants included 249 patients aged 60 years or older who were available of TBS prescribe by DXA. 89 femoral neck fracture patients and 160 trochanteric fractures were enrolled. Spine T- score, hip T- score (neck), hip T- score (total), lowest T- score in hip, L1-L4 TBS. TBS Z-score, L1-L4 BMD(g/cm²), L1-L4 BMD T-score, L1 TBS, L1 BMD(g/cm2), L1 BMD T-score, L2 TBS, L2 BMD(g/cm2), L2 BMD T-score, L3 TBS, L3 BMD(g/cm2), L3 BMD T-score, L4 TBS, L4 BMD(g/cm2), L4 BMD T-score, lowest TBS score, highest TBS score were analyzed.
resultsDemographic data (age, sex, height, weight, BMI) and T-score of hip and spine in two groups showed no significant difference. TBS in spine in two groups revealed higher TBS in femoral neck fracture groups.
conclusionThere is no difference of age, sex, and BMI in two groups. The T-score was not statistically significant in comparison of bone quality in hip fracture groups. The TBS in femoral neck fracture group is higher than trochanteric fractures. The TBS in spine can be more valuable than T-score of DXA for the proper evaluation of bone quality in the hip fracture patients.
