Impact of yogurt consumption on bone health markers in adults with or without osteoporosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Yogurt is a fermented dairy product widely recognized for its nutritional value and potential health benefits, particularly due to its high content of calcium, phosphorus, vitamins, and other bioactive compounds. Its purported role in promoting bone health has attracted increasing attention, especially among adults at risk of osteoporosis. However, the specific impact of yogurt consumption on bone health remains controversial, as current evidence is limited and often inconclusive. This systematic review and meta-analysis sought to evaluate the exclusive effects of yogurt consumption on bone health in adults with and without osteoporosis. Employing rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria and standardized methodologies, the study reviewed data from both observational and clinical studies to assess the effect of yogurt consumption on bone mineral density (BMD), fracture risk, and other bone health markers. In addition, yogurt characteristics were documented in accordance with EFSA guidelines, the possible bioactive components listed, and their potential mechanism of action in relation to bone health discussed.
