Assessment of osteoporosis and vertebral fractures with T1- and T2-weighted MRI scans.
Article in Archives of osteoporosis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Osteoporosis is related to changes in vertebral bone marrow tissues, which can be detected by MRI. A novel MRI scoring method based on routine T1 and T2 sequences has been developed and demonstrated capabilities in detecting osteoporosis and discriminating vertebral fractures. The scoring method may provide an alternative tool other than BMD measurement for broad, opportunistic use in clinics. PURPOSE: As a routinely used radiation-free modality at the spine, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is promising to assess osteoporosis because it can detect age- or osteoporosis-related changes in bone marrow tissues. Here, we proposed a new MRI scoring method using the patient's low-back subcutaneous fat and cerebrospinal fluid as reference controls on routine T1 and T2 sequences, respectively, to indicate proton-rich changes in vertebrae for assessing osteoporosis and vertebral fractures.
methodsThe study included 60 female patients (64.1 ± 15.9 years) who underwent both MRI and quantitative computed tomography (QCT) at spine. T1-based F-score
