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

objectivesGeranylgeraniol (GGOH) has been reported as a potential treatment option for bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaws (BP-ONJ). The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of GGOH on endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) after bisphosphonate treatment in vitro. MATERIALS AND

methodsEPC were incubated with different nitrogen (N-BPs: ibandronate, pamidronate, zoledronate) and a non-nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (NN-BP: clodronate) with and without GGOH. Cell viability was measured by MTT and PrestoBlue assay. Migration ability was analyzed with a Boyden and Scratch assay. Apoptosis rates were determined by colony-forming, Tunel and ToxiLight assays.

resultsNegative effects of N-BPs on EPC were shown in all tests without GGOH. The substitution of GGOH demonstrated significantly increased cell viability (MTT: p each N-BP ≤0.004; PrestoBlue: p each N-BP <0.001) and migration ability (Boyden: p each N-BP <0.001; Scratch: p each N-BP <0.001). Concerning the apoptosis rates, increased EPC colony densities (p each N-BP ≤0.009), decreased numbers of apoptotic cells in the Tunel assay (p each N-BP <0.001), and a decreased adenylate kinase release in the ToxiLight assay (p each N-BP ≤0.03) were observed. For the clodronate-treated cells, no significant differences could be detected with or without GGOH in any assay (p each N-BP/NN-BP >0.05).

conclusionsGGOH cell treatment reversed the negative effects of bisphosphonates on EPC. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These findings support the hypothesis that systemic or local GGOH treatment might lead to new therapeutic strategies for BP-ONJ.
