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

In vertebrates, most of the skeleton is formed through endochondral ossification. Endochondral bone formation is a complex process involving the mesenchymal condensation of undifferentiated cells, the proliferation of chondrocytes and their differentiation into hypertrophic chondrocytes, and mineralization. This process is tightly regulated by various factors including transcription factors, soluble mediators, extracellular matrices, and cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Defects of these factors often lead to skeletal dysplasias and short stature. Moreover, there is growing evidence that epigenetic and microRNA-mediated mechanisms also play critical roles in chondrogenesis. This review provides an overview of our current understanding of the regulators for the development of growth plate cartilage and their molecular mechanisms of action. A knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms underlying the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes will provide insights into future therapeutic options for skeletal disorders.
