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

backgroundThis study characterized a novel rabbit model of subchondral bone bruise and investigated the intervening effect of calcitonin.

methodsBone bruise was implemented via controlled free-fall counterpoise on the medial tibial subchondral bone of 5-month-old New Zealand rabbits, with 3, 2.5, or 2 Joules of energy. Subsequent subchondral bone bruise was characterized via magnetic resonance imaging, micro computed tomography, and histology. Calcitonin was administered for 3 weeks, and the changes in subchondral bone were characterized.

resultsThe severity of subchondral bone bruise lesions correlated with the energy applied. The lesions involved trabecular separation and reduced trabecular number, with bone marrow edema and trabecular micro-fracture. With calcitonin treatment, subchondral bone marrow edema subsided and trabecular ultrastructure repaired.

conclusionFree fall counterpoise is a promising method to establish a subchondral bone bruise model in rabbits. Calcitonin injection is a potential treatment for subchondral bone bruise lesions.
