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

There is an ongoing need to develop prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers for osteoarthritis (OA). Understanding how biomarkers change in response to physical activity may be vital for understanding if a patient has a joint that is failing to adapt to a given loading stimulus. The purpose of this review is to describe how biomarker changes after joint loading may help detect early OA and determine prognosis. This may help to inform and more specifically target interventions and clinical trials. We conducted a critical review of the relevant literature that was published to January 2016. There is extensive OA biomarker research, specifically basal biomarker concentrations; however, there is limited research surrounding biomarker response to load. Some of this limited research includes the response of minimal biomarkers reflecting bone, synovium, inflammatory, and cartilage responses to load. Biomarker changes occur in bone and cartilage in response to a variety of activities and are influenced by variables such as body weight, load, vibration, and activity time. Biomarker responses to loading tasks may serve as a measure of overall joint health and be predictive of structural changes. Biomarkers adapt to training over time, and this may indicate a need for a gradual return to physical activity after an injury to allow time for joint tissues to adapt to load. Biomarker responses to physical activity may be monitored to determine appropriate loading levels and safety for return to activity.
