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

Cancer survivors after radiotherapy may suffer a variety of bone‑related adverse side effects, including radioactive osteoporosis and fractures. Localized irradiation is a common treatment modality for malignancies. Recently, a series of reactions and injuries called indirect effects (remote changes in bone when other parts of the body are irradiated) have been reported on the indirect irradiated area of bone tissue after radiotherapy. To address this issue, we developed a rat localized irradiation model. Rats were irradiated with a single dose of X-rays to the left hind limbs, and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) were isolated from bone marrow of the left (direct irradiated) and right (indirect irradiated) hind limbs 3, 7 and 14 days after irradiation, and assayed for the proliferation ability and osteogenic potential by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization assay, RT‑PCR and western blot analysis. The results showed that there were significant morphology changes in the BMMSCs from direct and indirect irradiated bone tissue with bigger cell bodies and increased granules. The proliferation of BMMSCs decreased both in the direct irradiated and non‑irradiated bone tissue. The ALP expression and activities of BMMSCs from direct irradiated bone was consistently defected following a transient enhancement, the mRNA levels of RUNX2 and OCN, the protein expression of RUNX2, and the mineralization ability also showed the same trend. Simultaneously, in indirect irradiated group, the osteogenic potential indicators of BMMSCs decreased in the early stage of post‑irradiation and were still impaired 14 days after irradiation. Our data demonstrate that localized irradiation may have both direct and indirect adverse effects on BMMSCs' proliferation and osteogenic potential into osteoblast, which may be the mechanism of radiation-induced abscopal impairment to the skeleton in the cancer radiotherapy-induced bone loss.
