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

The goal of this work was to extend a mathematical, multiscale systems model of bone function, remodeling, and health in order to explore hypotheses related to therapeutic modulation of sclerostin and quantitatively describe purported osteocyte activity within bone remodeling events. A pharmacokinetic model with first-order absorption and dual elimination pathways was used to describe the kinetics of romosozumab, a monoclonal antibody (mAb) against sclerostin. To describe total circulating sclerostin, an extended indirect response model of inhibition of offset was developed. These models were subsequently linked to the systems model, with sclerostin signaling changes in resorption and formation through established osteocyte-mediated mechanisms. The model proposes relative contributions of the osteocyte to the RANKL pool, a major player in feedback signaling, and is used to explore hypotheses surrounding attenuation of anabolic activity after multiple doses of sclerostin mAbs, a phenomenon whose mechanism is poorly understood.
