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

We aimed to investigate the role of oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox‑LDL) in tumor necrosis factor‑α (TNF‑α) mediated chondrocyte death and explore the mechanisms. Ten osteoarthritis (OA) and normal control cartilage tissue and synovial fluid (SF) samples were collected, and the expression of lectin‑like ox‑LDL receptor‑1 (LOX‑1) and ox‑LDL level was examined by real time quantitative PCR and enzyme‑linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). An in vitro chondrocyte model was established by the introduction of TNF‑α and ox‑LDL, cell death was analyzed by trypan blue assay and the mechanisms were explored based on the apoptosis related pathway and autophagy pathway. Significantly increased ox‑LDL level (70.30±17.83 vs. 37.22±19.97, P<0.05) in SF sample and LOX‑1 expression level (0.51±0.10 vs. 0.32±0.04, P<0.05) in cartilage tissue was found in OA patients compared to those corresponding samples from control subjects. Ox‑LDL could facilitate TNF‑α mediated chondrocyte death and this effect could be blocked by LOX‑1 antibody neutralization. Autophagy inhibition by 3‑MA and Atg‑5 siRNA could reverse the cell death effect mediated by TNF‑α and ox‑LDL co‑treatment on chondrocytes. Oxidized low density lipoprotein facilitates tumor necrosis factor‑α mediated chondrocyte death via its interaction with LOX‑1, and autophagy is involved in the mechanisms.
