New developments in the pathogenesis of articular cartilage calcification.
Review in Current rheumatology reports, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Articular cartilage, unlike growth plate cartilage, is specialized to not undergo matrix calcification. However, articular cartilage mineralization, in the form of CPPD (chondrocalcinosis) and hydroxyapatite crystals, frequently accompanies and complicates osteoarthritis and aging. Recent work has demonstrated that certain features of growth cartilage development and mineralization are shared in degenerative cartilage. These include chondrocyte proliferation, hypertrophy and increased apoptosis. Moreover, parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP), one of the central mediators of endochondral development, is abundant in osteoarthritic cartilage. Cartilage PPi elaboration and cytosolic transglutaminase activity are markedly increased with aging. Only recently have the molecular identities been defined for the chondrocyte inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi)-generating isozymes of the phosphodiesterase nucleotide pyrophosphatase (PDNP) family (including PC-1 and B10), and for transglutaminase in articular cartilage. This review focuses on the evolving understanding of the potential roles, in articular cartilage calcification, of PTHrP, PDNP family enzymes, PPi metabolism, and transglutaminase activity.
