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

Activation of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling has been used to enhance healing of meniscal degeneration in several models. However, the exact role and molecular mechanism of TGF-β signaling in meniscus maintenance and degeneration are still not understood due to the absence of in vivo evidence. In this study, we found that the expression of activin receptor-like kinases 5 (ALK5) in the meniscus was decreased with the progression of age and/or osteoarthritis induced meniscal degeneration. Col2α1 positive cells were found to be specifically distributed in the superficial and inner zones of the anterior horn, as well as the inner zone of the posterior horn in mice, indicating that Col2α1-CreER
