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

purposeTo analyse the effect on fasting glucose levels after one month of PTH 1-34 treatment in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

methodsTwenty-six postmenopausal women treated with PTH 1-34 were enrolled. Patients with glucose ≥ 110 mg/dl and/or glycosylated hemoglobin > 48 mmol/mol were excluded. At baseline and after one month treatment, we measured fasting serum glucose, calcium, creatinine, PTH, 25(OH)vitamin D, OPG, RANKL, and BALP. Standardized questionnaires were administered to assess dietary caloric intake and physical activity.

resultsAfter one month, patients were divided according to the increase (group A) or decrease of glucose (group B). We found no difference between these two groups as regards anthropometric, biochemical evaluation, DXA measurements, dietary caloric intake, physical activity and fractures at baseline. There was no difference between groups in the number of patients treated before with bisphosphonates. Dietary caloric intake and physical activity after one month of therapy were not different in both groups. The mean delta glucose decrease after one month was 7%±4% in group B while the delta increase was 8%±5% in group A, p = 0.001. The only statistically significant difference between these groups, after one month, was an increase in mean delta BALP in group B compared to group A (group B:19 ± 23% vs. group A -0.7 ± 7, p = 0.04). Mean delta vitamin D and OPG increased, while mean delta PTH and RANKL decreased in both groups, without statistically significant differences between groups.

conclusionPTH 1-34 decreases mean serum glucose levels when bone formation is increased, as suggested by a significant increase in BALP in this group.
