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

objectiveThe study was performed to investigate bone deteriorations and the molecular responses of bone to early estrogen deficiency induced by ovariectomy (OVX) in rats.

methodsThe female rats were subjected to OVX (4 or 8 week) and sham (4 or 8 week) operation. All rats were killed 4 week or 8 week after the surgical operation. The biomarkers in serum and urine were measured. Hematoxylin & Eosin and tartate-resistant acid phosphatase staining were performed on paraffin-embedded bone sections. Expression of genes and proteins were analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting respectively.

resultsThe OVX rats showed the decreased level of serum Ca and the increased level of urinary Ca excretion at 8 week post-OVX. The level of PTH and TRACP-5b increased at 4 and 8 week post-OVX. At both 4 and 8 week, FGF-23 was significantly lower in OVX rats than sham rats. The H&E staining showed remarkable bone abnormalities, including increased disconnections and separation of trabecular bone network in proximal metaphysis of tibia at OVX (4 and 8 week) group. In addition, the mRNA expression ratio of OPG/RANKL was reduced in the proximal tibia. The mRNA expression of MMP-9, CAII, EphA2 and ephrinA2, and the protein expression of EphA2 and ephrinA2 were markedly up-regulated in the proximal tibia. Moreover, the mRNA expression of TGF-β, EphB4 and ephrinB2, and the protein expression of EphB4 and ephrinB2 were down-regulated in proximal metaphysis of tibia at OVX group.

conclusionsThe endogenous estrogen deficiency was detrimental to bone, and the underlying mechanism was mediated, at least partially, through the local bone Eph/ephrin signaling pathway.
