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

We studied over 45,000 Danish adults with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease to assess whether parathyroid hormone (PTH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were associated with fracture risk. Elevated PTH (over twice normal) and ALP (above 70 U/L) were linked to higher fracture rates, suggesting these markers may help identify high-risk patients. PURPOSE: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased risk of bone fracture. We aimed to examine the association between parathyroid hormone (PTH), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and fracture risk in non-dialysis-dependent CKDG3-5.

methodsDanish adults with eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m

resultsAmong 45,611 included individuals adjusted rates of MOF were increased in patients with high PTH (hazard ratio (HR) 1.15, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04-1.26, p = 0.005) and very high PTH (HR 1.23, 95% CI 1.04-1.46, p = 0.012), compared to patients with normal PTH. Patients with ALP levels in the upper-normal (HR 1.11, CI 1.02-1.20, p = 0.01), slightly elevated (HR 1.29 CI 1.13-1.47, p < 0.001), and high (HR 1.59, CI 1.39-1.75, p < 0.001) categories showed significantly higher rates of MOF compared to low to low-normal ALP. We found similar HRs of any fracture event stratified by ALP- and PTH levels.

conclusionOur nationwide observational cohort study demonstrates that PTH and ALP were positively associated with fracture risk in non-dialysis-dependent CKDG3-5.
