The Effects of Acute and Chronic Alcohol Administration and Withdrawal on Bone Microstructure, Mechanical Strength, and Remodeling Protein Expression and Their Relation to an Antioxidant and FGF23 In Vivo.
Article in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Alcohol's detrimental effects on bone health are well established, yet some literature suggests moderate consumption may offer benefits. With alcohol use on the rise, we investigate the impact of acute and chronic alcohol administration, along with withdrawal, on male Wistar rat femurs. We observed a transient cortical thickness increase with acute alcohol (AA) compared to chronic exposure (CA) but no significant changes in trabecular parameters or mechanical properties. High osteocalcin and osteopontin expression levels were noted in AA, alongside elevated RANKL expression. Conversely, CA showed low TRAP levels. FGF23 expression significantly increased during alcohol withdrawal (AW), while GPX decreased after chronic exposure but rose during withdrawal. Although mechanical strength changes were insignificant, biochemical shifts suggest alcohol exposure promotes bone resorption, reduces antioxidant protection, and potentially hampers active vitamin D and phosphate reabsorption via FGF23 upregulation.
