Development and validation of a nomogram for osteoporosis based on clinical characteristics in Kunming.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe exploration of clinical characteristics associated with osteoporosis (OP) is crucial due to its high incidence and complex pathogenesis. Therefore, this study analyzed clinical characteristics for OP in a large cohort of middle-aged and elderly patients in Kunming and constructed a nomogram model through OP-related characteristics.
methodsFollowing inclusion and exclusion, we obtained 1,220 middle-aged and elderly patients (480 OP, 740 non-OP) from 1,847 patients and analyzed approximately 200 clinical characteristics for significant differences. We randomly split the 1,220 patients into a 7:3 training and validation set. In the training set, we used univariate and multivariate logistic regression, along with Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, to identify OP-related clinical characteristics, which were then used to construct a nomogram diagnostic model. The nomogram model's performance was validated via ROC curves, calibration curves and DCA curves.
resultsWe identified over 50 clinical characteristics that showed significant differences between the OP and non-OP groups. Using machine learning, we screened for 18 characteristics closely associated with OP, including Age, Sex, Smoke, Left hand muscle strength, Right hand muscle strength, Height Shorter, Creatinine, and Bone mineral density-related characteristics, among others. The nomogram model, based on 18 clinical characteristics, achieved AUCs of 0.998 (training set) and 0.994 (validation set) for ROC curves, demonstrating excellent diagnostic performance supported by calibration and DCA curves.
conclusionThis study identified 18 OP-related clinical characteristics and constructed a nomogram model based on these characteristics, which exhibited excellent discriminatory power between OP and non-OP patients.
