Strategic Targeting of Multiple BMP Receptors Prevents Trauma-Induced Heterotopic Ossification.
Article in Molecular therapy : the journal of the American Society of Gene Therapy, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 papers.
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.
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
Trauma-induced heterotopic ossification (tHO) is a condition of pathologic wound healing, defined by the progressive formation of ectopic bone in soft tissue following severe burns or trauma. Because previous studies have shown that genetic variants of HO, such as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), are caused by hyperactivating mutations of the type I bone morphogenetic protein receptor (T1-BMPR) ACVR1/ALK2, studies evaluating therapies for HO have been directed primarily toward drugs for this specific receptor. However, patients with tHO do not carry known T1-BMPR mutations. Here we show that, although BMP signaling is required for tHO, no single T1-BMPR (ACVR1/ALK2, BMPR1a/ALK3, or BMPR1b/ALK6) alone is necessary for this disease, suggesting that these receptors have functional redundancy in the setting of tHO. By utilizing two different classes of BMP signaling inhibitors, we developed a translational approach to treatment, integrating treatment choice with existing diagnostic options. Our treatment paradigm balances either immediate therapy with reduced risk for adverse effects (Alk3-Fc) or delayed therapy with improved patient selection but greater risk for adverse effects (LDN-212854).
