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 this review we analyzed the role of PGE2 as a possible regulator of bone metabolism and bone metastases in prostate cancer. Published studies were identified by searching computerized bibliographic systems from January 1(st), 2000 to July 1(st), 2011. PGE2 represents a key factor in the modulation of bone metabolism and bone metastatic disease in prostate cancer interacting with bone regulatory signals including the RANK/RANKL/OPG system and Wnt pathways. A high concentration of PGE2 exerts a prevalent stimulatory effect on osteoclastogenesis via OPG/RANK/RANKL axis activation and a inhibitory effect on osteoblastogenesis trough inhibition of Wnt pathway. An inversely low level of PGE2 exerts a stimulatory effect on osteoblastogenesis via activation of the Wnt pathway. Our finding suggests that PGE2 acts as a regulator in maintaining normal bone mass and indicate a mechanism whereby chemical manipulation of PGE2 levels or signaling may be therapeutically beneficial for prostate cancer treatment.
