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

Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between the Systemic Inflammatory Response Index (SIRI) and bone mineral density (BMD) in children and adolescents aged 8-19 years. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used, utilizing NHANES data from 2011-2016, including 3,205 participants aged 8 to 19 years. Weighted multivariable regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between SIRI and BMD at the lumbar spine, pelvis, trunk, and whole body. Additionally, smooth curve fitting was applied to examine the nonlinear relationship between SIRI and BMD, and subgroup analyses were performed to explore potential interaction effects and modifiers. Results: SIRI was significantly positively correlated with BMD at the pelvis, trunk, and whole body (p < 0.05). After adjusting for covariates, a one-unit increase in ln(SIRI) was associated with increases in BMD of 0.018 g/cm², 0.006 g/cm², and 0.005 g/cm² for the pelvis, trunk, and whole body, respectively. Nonlinear analysis revealed a saturation effect between ln(SIRI) and BMD, with a more pronounced impact at specific threshold values. Subgroup analysis indicated that gender, age, BMI and total calcium levels modulated the relationship between SIRI and BMD. Conclusion: SIRI is significantly associated with BMD in children and adolescents, with a positive effect on BMD at specific threshold levels. This finding suggests that SIRI may serve as a potential biomarker for assessing the risk of low bone mineral density, offering theoretical support for the prevention and intervention of bone health issues such as osteoporosis.
