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

Aucubin represents an iridoid glucoside separated from multiple Chinese herbs, which has been demonstrated to possess numerous pharmacological activities. In the present study, the aim was to investigate the roles and mechanisms of aucubin in the suppression of mouse MC3T3‑E1 osteoblast apoptosis induced by Titanium particles and the promotion of bone formation. MTT assay and flow cytometry were performed to analyze cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. ELISA and para‑nitrophenyl phosphate colorimetry were carried out to evaluate the oxidative stress markers and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Western blotting and reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays were used to evaluate the associated mRNA and protein expression. The results revealed that aucubin enhanced the cell activity of MC3T3‑E1 cells treated with Ti particles. Aucubin suppressed the apoptosis of Ti particles‑induced MC3T3‑E1 cells and facilitated osteogenesis by affecting the B‑cell lymphoma‑2 (Bcl‑2), Bcl‑2 associated X protein, ALP and associated osteogenic factors expression. Aucubin reduced the oxidative stress in Ti particles‑induced MC3T3‑E1 cells. In addition, aucubin upregulated the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2)/Smads/runt related transcription factor 2 (RunX2) pathway in Ti particles‑induced MC3T3‑E1 cells. In conclusion, the present study confirmed that aucubin suppressed the Ti particles‑mediated apoptosis of MC3T3‑E1 cells and facilitated osteogenesis by affecting the BMP2/Smads/RunX2 signaling pathway.
