Analysis of the current status and characteristics of osteoporosis in adult hemophilia patients based on high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography: a case control study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. 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
backgroundCurrent research on osteoporosis (OP) in hemophilia is insufficient. The suitability of high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) for evaluating osteoporosis in hemophilia remains unclear.
aimTo investigate the current status of osteoporosis and the applicability of HR-pQCT in adult hemophilia patients.
methodsThirty three hemophilia patients aged 23-49 years were recruited. X-ray examinations were performed on the bleeding joints. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT were used to assess bone mineral density (BMD). The HR-pQCT values of the distal tibia and radius were compared between hemophilia patients and healthy controls(HCs).
resultsAll bleeding joints showed local osteoporosis on X-ray. Only 33.3% of patients had a hip BMD lower than the expected value according to DXA. The Tb.vBMD(98.5 ± 44.2 mg/cm BV/TV: 0.3 ± 0.1, Tb.N:1.5 ± 0.2 1/mm,Ct.Pm:117.8 ± 8.2 mm; radius Tt.Ar:285.7 ± 35.6 mm
conclusionThe bone health status of adult hemophilia patients in China is worrying. The occurrence of OP may be accompanied by varying degrees of bone loss, bone destruction, and structural abnormalities observed in both trabecular and cortical bones of the upper and lower limbs. The condition of the trabecular bones in the lower limbs is particularly severe. The correlation between BMD measurements obtained from HR-pQCT and DXA is strong.
