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

objectiveThe aim of the study was to determine the transcription profile of the mouse nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus with an unbiased method. Furthermore, pathophysiological relevance of selected genes was demonstrated in the mouse tail intervertebral disc injury model.

designPaired normal mouse nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus tissue from C57BL/6j mice was examined by a polymerase chain reaction array. Key gene expression in the normal and injured intervertebral discs was confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction.

resultsAmong the 84 genes studied, 63 were expressed higher in annulus fibrosus than in nucleus pulposus; only four genes were expressed higher in nucleus pulposus than in annulus fibrosus (n = 4, P ≤ 0.05). Real-time polymerase chain reaction confirmed that cadherin (cdh) 2 gene expression was higher in nucleus pulposus than in annulus fibrosus, and type I collagen (col1) gene expression was higher in the annulus fibrosus than in nucleus pulposus (n = 8, P < 0.01). One week after tail intervertebral disc injury, cdh2 gene expression decreased, while col1 expression increased (n = 8, P < 0.01).

conclusionsThis is the first study to examine the relative expression of 84 genes in normal mouse nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus. Key genes in the normal and injured mouse intervertebral discs were confirmed with real-time polymerase chain reaction. This information should be useful for studying the mouse model of intervertebral disc degeneration and guide future cell therapy approaches.
