Decision aids in patients with osteoporosis: A scoping review.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionAlthough various methods exist for osteoporosis prevention, most patients fail to receive optimal treatment due to information asymmetry between physicians and patients, as well as limited consultation time. Current literatures suggest that decision aids can support clinical decision-making by improving patients' risk perception and treatment acceptance.
objectiveThis scoping review described the use and effectiveness of decision aids in clinical decision-making among individuals with osteoporosis. INCLUSION CRITERIA: The review will include studies conducted in various countries that focus on decision-aiding interventions for people with osteoporosis in different settings and are published in English or Chinese.
methodsPubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database were searched. The search timeframe was from the establishment of the database to June 30, 2024. Studies that meet the inclusion criteria will be eligible for selection. The process of selecting eligible studies will then be summarized on a PRISMA-ScR chart. Collated in data-extraction tables will be authorship information, publication date, country, study site, sample information, study type, intervention form, content elements, application scope, and outcome indicators. The content elements, application scope, and outcome indicators will be analyzed using a thematic analysis and summarized using a narrative summary.
conclusionWith strong efficacy and viability, DA greatly enhances patients' decision-making experience and decision quality. In order to provide patients with osteoporosis with high-quality decision-making support, it will be necessary to conduct large-scale, randomized controlled studies in the future with the goal of guaranteeing homogeneous interventions, expand the scope and meaning of the application of DA in osteoporosis, improve professional support during the decision-making process, create scientific and useful decision-making aids, and take specific actions.
