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

Racial differences in fracture risk are not fully explained by differences in areal BMD (aBMD) as measured by DXA. Other aspects of bone quality, such as bone material properties, are not captured by DXA, but may contribute to fracture risk. Few studies have investigated racial/ethnic differences in bone material properties, and none have included Hispanic Americans. We assessed differences in bone material strength index (BMSi) measured by impact micro indentation by race/ethnicity. Caribbean Hispanic (CH), non-Hispanic Black (NHB), and non-Hispanic White (NHW) participants from the Washington Heights Inwood Community Aging Project (
