Ca(2+)/Finding
One finding, on its own
A single claim from the graph, with the evidence strength computed from its study, the sentence it was drawn from, and the paper. This address does not change.
No detected effect on vertebral fracture incidence
LimitedEvidence strength: limited. Human evidence with several recorded weaknesses, or a design that tops out at limited.FindingNull result“The association between calcium administration and hip fracture [risk ratio (RR) 1.56; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.91 to 2.69, I2=28%; P=0.11], vertebral fracture (RR 0.95; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.10, I2=0%; P=0.49) or other fractures (RR 0.83; 95% CI 0.65 to 1.06, I2=0%; P=0.14) was not significant in comparison to either no treatment or placebo administration.”
