Fragility fracture programs: are they effective and what is the surgeon's role?
Review in Current osteoporosis reports, 2015. 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
Fragility fractures are occurring at an ever-increasing rate, creating an enormous economic and societal impact. Outpatient-based fragility fracture programs have been developed to identify at-risk patients, initiate effective treatment of metabolic bone disease, and improve coordination between members of the patient's care team with the goal of reducing future fractures. Inpatient programs focus on effective, efficient management of patients presenting with acute fractures. Both have proven successful in reducing the impact of fragility fractures, but many challenges exist. The orthopedic surgeon, as part of an integrated team of providers, is integral in identifying at-risk patients, ensuring appropriate care of acute fractures, and initiating treatment protocols to reduce the risk of further injuries.
