Review in Current osteoporosis reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06745544 (Impact of Screening and Multicomponent Exercise on Fall Rates, Fractures, and Cardiovascular Health in Diabetes), which is not on this map. Cited by 28 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewBased on a systematic literature search, we performed a comprehensive review of risk factors for falls and fractures in patients with diabetes. RECENT

findingsPatients with diabetes have an increased risk of fractures partly explained by increased bone fragility. Several risk factors as altered body composition including sarcopenia and obesity, impaired postural control, gait deficits, neuropathy, cardiovascular disease, and other co-morbidities are considered to increase the risk of falling. Diabetes and bone fragility is well studied, but new thresholds for fracture assessment should be considered. In general, the risk factors for falls in patients with diabetes are well documented in several studies. However, the fall mechanisms among diabetic patients have only been assessed in few studies. Thus, a gab of knowledge exits and may influence the current understanding and treatment, in order to reduce the risk of falling and thereby prevent fractures.
