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

The transcription factor Pax6, which belongs to the paired box-containing gene family, regulates developmental processes, especially in the eyes, central nervous tissues and craniofacial structures. However, the role of Pax6 in bone has never been studied exclusively. Here we report that Pax6 is expressed at both the mRNA and protein level in the calvaria and long bones of adult mice as well as osteocyte-like MLOY4 cells and suppresses the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Moreover, the expression levels of Pax6 were much higher in the calvaria than the long bones, and Pax6 was also expressed at E16 to E18 in both the calvaria and long bones. Knockdown of Pax6 in MLOY4 cells did not affect cell proliferation or survival; however, the expression of Sost, an osteocyte marker gene, was significantly decreased. In addition, the overexpression of Pax6 suppressed the canonical Wnt signaling pathway by enhancing the expression of Sost. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that Pax6 binds to the Sost promoter and that stimulation of Sost transcription by Pax6 was dependent on a specific Pax6-binding sequence within the promoter. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggest that Pax6 is expressed in bone and may play an important role in osteocyte differentiation by controlling canonical Wnt signaling.
