1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Abaloparatide treatment significantly increased BMD at the LS, TH, and FN compared with placebo in men with osteoporosis in the phase 3 ATOM trial. The current study used 3D-DXA modeling to evaluate the effects of abaloparatide on cortical and trabecular compartments of the proximal femur in ATOM study participants. Proximal femur DXA images were retrospectively analyzed using 3D-DXA (3D-Shaper software v2.12.0, 3D-Shaper Medical, Barcelona, Spain) to evaluate changes in bone parameters from baseline at months 6 and 12 in all randomized men from the ATOM trial. Between-group comparisons were made for percent change from baseline data based on a mixed-effect repeated-measure model with treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and type of DXA scanner as fixed effects. Other covariates include BMI, age, and baseline values of bone parameters. Abaloparatide treatment significantly increased integral volumetric BMD (vBMD) (3.7%), trabecular vBMD (7.0%), cortical thickness (1.1%), and cortical surface BMD (1.7%) at 12 mo compared to baseline (
