Correlation Analysis between Serum Uric Acid Levels and Bone Mineral Density in Children with Obesity.

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
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) levels and bone mineral density (BMD) in children with obesity. Methods: 229 children with obesity were included in the study, and their blood SUA, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and other indicators were measured. Distal forearm BMD was assessed at the radius and ulna. Differences in these indicators were compared across different genders and age groups. Results: BMD showed significant differences between genders and age groups. The BMD Z-score in the 6-9 years group was higher than that in the 10-12 years group for both boys (-0.13 ± 0.92 vs -1.27 ± 0.62, p = 0.000) and girls (0.68 ± 0.96 vs -0.03 ± 0.73, p = 0.001). Serum SUA levels in the 6-9 years group were lower than those in the 10-12 years group for both boys (345.9 ± 65.7 vs 415.39 ± 74.02, p = 0.000) and girls (338.33 ± 63.33 vs 368.61 ± 75.45, p = 0.047). SUA was negatively correlated with BMD in all age groups of boys and in the 6-9 years group of girls (p<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that after controlling for other factors affecting BMD, SUA remained significantly negatively correlated with BMD Z-scores (p < 0.001). Conclusion: SUA is negatively correlated with BMD in children with obesity and is an independent factor affecting BMD. It may serve as a potential predictor of BMD in children with obesity.
