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

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common and increasing joint disease worldwide. Current treatment for OA is limited to control of symptoms. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of specificity protein 1 (SP1) inhibitor Mithramycin A (MitA) on chondrocyte catabolism and OA pathogenesis and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms involving SP1 and other key factors that are critical for OA. Here, we show that MitA markedly inhibited expressions of matrix-degrading enzymes induced by pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in mouse primary chondrocytes. Intra-articular injection of MitA into mouse knee joint alleviated OA cartilage destruction induced by surgical destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM). However, modulation of SP1 level in chondrocyte and mouse cartilage did not alter catabolic gene expression or cartilage integrity, respectively. Instead, MitA significantly impaired the expression of HIF-2α known to be critical for OA pathogenesis. Such reduction in expression of HIF-2α by MitA was caused by inhibition of NF-κB activation, at least in part. These results suggest that MitA can alleviate OA pathogenesis by suppressing NF-κB-HIF-2α pathway, thus providing insight into therapeutic strategy for OA.
