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

This study identified that an 18-month community-based, multifaceted, exercise program consisting of resistance, weight-bearing impact, and balance/mobility training combined with osteoporosis education and behavioural support can improve health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and osteoporosis knowledge in older adults at risk of fracture, but only for those adherent to the exercise regime. PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of an 18-month community-based exercise, osteoporosis education and behaviour change program (Osteo-cise: Strong Bones for Life) on HRQoL, osteoporosis knowledge and osteoporosis health beliefs.

methodsThis was a secondary analysis of an 18-month randomised controlled trial in which 162 older adults aged ≥ 60 years with osteopenia or increased falls/fracture risk were randomized to the Osteo-cise program (n = 81) or control group (n = 81). The program consisted of progressive resistance, weight-bearing impact and balance training (3 days/week); osteoporosis education to facilitate self-management of musculoskeletal health and behavioural support to enhance adherence to exercise. HRQoL, osteoporosis knowledge and osteoporosis health beliefs were assessed using the EuroQoL questionnaire (EQ-5D-3L), Osteoporosis Knowledge Assessment Tool and Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale, respectively.

resultsOverall, 148 participants (91%) completed the trial. Mean exercise adherence was 55% and mean attendance for the three osteoporosis educational sessions ranged from 63-82%. After 12 and 18 months, there were no significant effects of the Osteo-cise program on HRQoL, osteoporosis knowledge or health beliefs relative to controls. Per protocol analyses (≥ 66% exercise adherence; n = 41) revealed a significant net benefit in EQ-5D-3L utility for the Osteo-cise group relative to controls after 12 months (P = 0.024) and 18 months (P = 0.029) and a significant net improvement in osteoporosis knowledge scores at 18 months (P = 0.014).

conclusionThis study supports the importance of adherence to exercise regimes, as adherence to the Osteo-cise: Strong Bones for Life program was associated with improvements in HRQoL and osteoporosis knowledge in older adults at increased risk for falls and fractures.
