ENA Actimineral Resource A restores bone loss and bone quality in ovariectomized rats.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of ENA Actimineral Resource A (ENA-A), seaweed origin alkaline water, on postmenopausal osteoporosis in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. The 12-week old Wistar rats were divided randomly into 4 groups: ovariectomized (OVX), OVX plus 0.5% ENA-A, OVX plus 5% ENA-A and OVX plus 10% ENA-A. A histopathological analysis indicated that ENA-A could prevent OVX-induced bone loss by increasing femur trabecular bone area in a dose-dependent manner. ENA-A significantly (p<0.05) increased serum estradiol levels, decreased serum osteocalcin activity and suppressed serum pyridinoline (PYD) levels. The in vitro effects of ENA-A were also studied using MC3T3-E1 cells. ENA-A significantly stimulated cell proliferation and increased both ALP activity and calcium deposition in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that the treatment of ovariectomized rats with ENA-A not only prevents bone resorption but also appears to maintain the cancellous bone structure of postmenopausal osteoporosis.
