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

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is a clinically important condition associated with pain, disability, and impaired quality of life. Although osteoporosis is commonly diagnosed based on bone mineral density (BMD), fracture occurrence cannot be fully explained by BMD alone, suggesting that additional systemic factors may contribute to fracture susceptibility. The gut microbiome has recently emerged as a potential regulator of bone metabolism; however, its association with OVCF remains insufficiently characterized. In this study, fecal microbiome profiling using 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed in 29 healthy controls, 11 patients with osteoporosis, and 25 patients with OVCF. Compared with the healthy control and osteoporosis groups, the OVCF group exhibited more distinct gut microbial compositional differences and reduced microbial diversity. Differential abundance analyses identified an increased relative abundance of
