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

Knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of bone formation has been advanced by novel findings related to genetic control. Odd-skipped related 1 (Osr1) is known to play important roles in embryonic, heart, and urogenital development. To elucidate the in vivo function of Osr1 in bone formation, we generated transgenic mice overexpressing full-length Osr1 under control of its 2.8-kb promoter, which were smaller than their wild-type littermates. Notably, abnormalities in the skull of Osr1 transgenic mice were revealed by analysis of X-ray, skeletal preparation, and morphological findings, including round skull and cranial dysraphism. Furthermore, primary calvarial cells obtained from these mice showed increased proliferation and expression of chondrocyte markers, while expression of osteoblast markers was decreased. BMP2 reduced Osr1 expression and Osr1 knockdown by siRNA-induced alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin expression in mesenchymal and osteoblastic cells. Together, our results suggest that Osr1 plays a coordinating role in appropriate skull closure and cranial bone formation by negative regulation.
