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

backgroundRomosozumab/AMG785 (Evenity

aimsTo assess the effectiveness of the radiation-free Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) for very short-term monitoring of RMZ in postmenopausal women.

methodsSeventy-four postmenopausal women starting RMZ and 52 postmenopausal women not receiving anti-osteoporosis drugs underwent proximal femur REMS scans at baseline and after 6 months, assessing total hip (TH) and femoral neck (FN) BMD. Exploratory analyses were also performed in treatment-naïve patients and in women with ≥ 2 prior fragility fractures.

resultsAfter six months of RMZ, BMD significantly increased at both TH (+ 3.7%; 0.718 ± 0.103 g/cm

conclusionsREMS detected clinically-relevant 6-month increases in femoral BMD during RMZ therapy, while BMD remained stable in untreated controls. These findings, together with anthropometric stability, support the feasibility of REMS for very short-term follow-up in real-world settings.
