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

Tetranectin is a plasminogen-binding protein that enhances plasminogen activation, which has been suggested to play a role in tissue remodeling. Recently, we showed that tetranectin has a role in the wound-healing process. In this study, we investigated whether tetranectin plays a role in fracture healing. The fracture-healing process was studied using a femoral osteotomy model in tetranectin-null mice, previously generated by the authors. Radiographic imaging, micro-computed tomography (μCT), and histological analysis were used to evaluate osteotomy healing. In wild-type mice, a callus was apparent from 7 days, and most samples showed marked callus formation and rebridging of the cortices at the osteotomy site at 21 days. In contrast, in the tetranectin-null mice there was no callus formation at 7 days and much less callus formation and no bridging of cortices were observed at 21 days. At 35 days, all osteotomy sites showed clear rebridging, and secondary bone formation was achieved in wild-type mice by 42 days. In contrast, no clear rebridging or secondary bone formation was observed at 42 days in the tetranectin-null mice. Analysis using μCT at 21 days after osteotomy revealed that the callus area in tetranectin-null mice was smaller than that in wild-type mice. Histological analysis also showed that soft tissue and callus formation were smaller in the tetranectin-null mice at the early stage of the healing process after drill-hole injury. These results suggested that tetranectin could have a role in the positive regulation at the early stage of the fracture-healing process, which was reflected in the delayed fracture healing in tetranectin-deficient mice.
