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

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a type of stem cell that has multidirectional differentiation abilities. Under certain inducing factors, MSCs can differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes. Adipocytes and osteoblasts are derived from MSCs, and decreased osteoblastogenesis and increased adipocytes may be a primary cause of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO). The present study aimed to elucidate whether BuShen NingXin Decoction (BSNXD), a traditional Chinese medicinal compound, regulates MSC differentiation into both osteoblasts and adipocytes. The effects of BSNXD on bone morphometry were measured using micro-CT and its effects on the proportion of immune cells in the spleen were measured using flow cytometry (FCM). BSNXD-mediated regulation of MSC differentiation into osteoblasts and adipocytes was verified in vitro using ALP and Oil Red O staining. In addition, osteoblastogenesis-related genes and adipocyte transcription factors were measured using real-time PCR. We found that BSNXD increased bone volume, bone mineral density, and bone trabecular number, but decreased bone trabecular spacing. BSNXD treatment also increased regulatory T cell (Treg) function in vivo. In vitro, BSNXD serum increased ALP activity as well as collagen type I, osteocalcin, Runx2, and osterix mRNA expression. Moreover, BSNXD decreased adipocyte numbers and PPARγ mRNA expression, whereas in Tregs, BSNXD enhanced ALP activity. In conclusion, BSNXD promotes the differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts and inhibits differentiation into adipocytes. BSNXD enhanced expression of osteoblastogenesis-related genes and decreased adipocyte transcription factor expression. We propose that BSNXD may be effective for the prevention of PMO.
