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

purposeKashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic degenerative osteoarthritis associated with extracellular matrix degradation. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the role of targeting genes in the pathogenesis of KBD and primary osteoarthritis (OA) involved in extracellular matrix degradation.

methodsAgilent 44 K human whole-genome oligonucleotide microarrays were used to detect the gene expression in KBD and OA cartilage. The mRNA and protein expressions of CSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 in chondrocytes were verified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blot, and their expression in cartilage were verified with immunocytochemical analysis. Meanwhile, CSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 protein levels in the selenium intervention group of KBD with different concentrations (0.25, 0.1 and 0.05 μg/ml) were detected by western blot.

resultsCSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 were down-regulated in KBD and OA at both mRNA and protein levels, and were increased in Se(Selenium) groups compared to KBD free-Se group. However, Wnt 3a, β-catenin and Runx-2 were up-regulated in OA and KBD at protein levels. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining showed that CSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 were reduced in all zones of KBD and OA articular cartilage, but not significantly reduced in the up zone of OA articular cartilage.

conclusionsThe CSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 were down-regulated in both KBD and OA cartilage. CSGalNAcT-1 may be involved in the damage of articular cartilage of KBD and OA by regulating Hapln-1 in the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. It was indicated that CSGalNAcT-1 and Hapln-1 may play important roles in the pathogenesis of KBD and OA.
