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

Polyphenolic compounds in beverages may have benefits in the prevention of osteoporosis. It has been demonstrated previously that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) could stimulate the migration of osteoblasts. In the present study, it was investigated whether chlorogenic acid, a major polyphenol in coffee, and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major polyphenol in green tea, could affect this IGF-I-stimulated migration of osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. The IGF-I-stimulated osteoblast migration, evaluated by Transwell cell migration and wound-healing assays, was inhibited by EGCG but not chlorogenic acid. IGF-I induced the phosphorylation of p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, p70 S6 kinase and Akt. The IGF-I-induced migration was suppressed by PD98059, a MAP kinase kinase 1/2 inhibitor, and deguelin, an Akt inhibitor, but not rapamycin, an inhibitor of the upstream kinase of p70 S6 kinase (mammalian target of rapamycin). EGCG attenuated the IGF-I-induced phosphorylation of p44/p42 MAP kinase but not Akt. Taken together, the present results suggest that EGCG inhibits IGF-I-induced osteoblast migration via p44/p42 MAP kinase.
