High Frequencies of Genetic Variants in Patients with Atypical Femoral Fractures.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This study explores the genetic factors associated with atypical femoral fractures (AFF), rare fractures associated with prolonged anti-resorptive therapy. AFF are fragility fractures that typically appear in the subtrochanteric or diaphyseal regions of the femur. While some cases resemble fractures in rare genetic bone disorders, the exact cause remains unclear. This study investigates 457 genes related to skeletal homeostasis in 13 AFF patients by exome sequencing, comparing the results with osteoporotic patients (
