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

introductionStudies launched in Japan on once-weekly teriparatide (1/W-TPTD) and twice-weekly teriparatide (2/W-TPTD) are limited. Therefore, we examined the effects of sequential therapy using anti-resorptive agents after administering 1/W-TPTD and 2/W-TPTD using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and DXA-based 3D modeling. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a multicenter retrospective study following a phase 3 clinical trial called the TWICE study. Two-year follow-up data were collected after administering 1/W-TPTD or 2/W-TPTD for 1 year (follow-up after the phase 3 clinical trial).

results20 subjects in the group of pre-treatments with 1/W-TPTD followed by sequential administration of bisphosphonate or denosumab (1/W-TPTD [BP/denosumab]), and 22 in the group 2/W-TPTD (BP/denosumab) were included in the analysis of changes in the BMD by post-treatment. In the 1/W-TPTD (BP/denosumab) group, a significant increase in L2-4 BMD was observed. In the 2/W-TPTD (BP/denosumab) group, a significant increase in total hip, neck, and L2-4 BMD values was observed. Analysis by 3D-SHAPER revealed that both the 1/W-TPTD (BP/denosumab) and 2/W-TPTD (BP/denosumab) groups demonstrated significant increases in cortical sBMD and vBMD 2 years after the initiation of post-treatment.

conclusionIn subjects who received 1/W-TPTD and 2/W-TPTD for about 1 year followed by sequential administration of BP or denosumab, significant improvements in BMD were continuously observed. Furthermore, significant improvements in cortical sBMD and vBMD were also demonstrated by analysis using 3D-SHAPER. Both 1/W-TPTD and 2/W-TPTD were effective in the treatment of osteoporosis by using anti-resorptive agents for sequential administration.
