Multidisciplinary management of acute osteoporotic vertebral fracture: results of a national Delphi consensus.
Article in Archives of osteoporosis, 2026. 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
introductionAcute osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) are common and underdiagnosed complications of osteoporosis and are associated with pain, disability, functional impairment, and a high risk of secondary fractures. In Spain, the lack of unified protocols for clinical management contributes to the heterogeneity of care in both public and private health care systems. The objective of this study was to establish a national multidisciplinary consensus on the diagnostic, therapeutic, and follow-up criteria for acute OVFs adapted to the context of the Spanish health care system. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis Delphi process was an initiative promoted by the Spanish Spine Society (GEER) and coordinated by a multidisciplinary Scientific Steering Committee made up of eight members. A two-round Delphi methodology coordinated by a multidisciplinary Scientific Steering Committee was performed. Sixty-four experts from seven national scientific societies (orthopedic surgery, radiology, rheumatology, geriatrics, endocrinology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, and bone metabolism) participated. Forty-five statements were formulated and organized into eight thematic sections.
resultsA consensus was reached on 44 of the 45 statements. It was agreed that diagnosis should begin with radiography and be complemented with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in symptomatic cases. Treatment should begin early with multimodal analgesia, early mobilization, calcium and vitamin D supplementation, and osteoprotective therapy, with a preference for anabolic agents in high-risk patients. The importance of secondary prevention programs, individualized rehabilitation, and comprehensive follow-up was emphasized. No consensus has been reached on the equivalence between vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty.
conclusionThis consensus establishes a standardized and multidisciplinary clinical framework for managing acute OVFs in Spain, aiming to improve clinical outcomes, reduce care variability, and optimize health care resources.
