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

objectivesFour adult non-human primates Papio ursinus were used to study induction of bone formation by recombinant human transforming growth factor-beta(2) (hTGF-beta(2)) together with muscle-derived stem cells. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe hTGF-beta(2) was implanted in rectus abdominis muscles and in calvarial defects with and without addition of morcellized fragments of striated muscle, harvested from the rectus abdominis or temporalis muscles. Expression of osteogenic markers including osteogenic protein-1, bone morphogenetic protein-3 and type IV collagen mRNAs from generated specimens was examined by Northern blot analysis.

resultsHeterotopic intramuscular implantation of 5 and 25 microg hTGF-beta(2) combined with 100 mg of insoluble collagenous bone matrix yielded large corticalized mineralized ossicles by day 30 with remodelling and induction of haematopoietic marrow by day 90. Addition of morcellized rectus abdominis muscle to calvarial implants enhanced induction of bone formation significantly by day 90.

conclusionsIn Papio ursinus, in marked contrast to rodents and lagomorphs, hTGF-beta(2) induced large corticalized and vascularized ossicles by day 30 after implantation into the rectus abdominis muscle. This striated muscle contains responding stem cells that enhance the bone induction cascade of hTGF-beta(2). Induction of bone formation by hTGF-beta(2) in the non-human primate Papio ursinus may occur as a result of expression of bone morphogenetic proteins on heterotopic implantation of hTGF-beta(2); the bone induction cascade initiated by mammalian TGF-beta proteins in Papio ursinus needs to be re-evaluated for novel molecular therapeutics for induction of bone formation in clinical contexts.
