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

Background: Since the low concentration and short-time treatment with sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO)–donor, cause no harm to rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), we studied the impact of SNP on MSCs differentiation. Methods: MSCs were treated with 100 and 1000 µM of SNP for 1 hour in every 48 hours and after 5, 10, 15, and 21 days in osteogenic media. The viability and the level of mineralization were determined using MTT assay and alizarin red staining, respectively. Morphology of the cells was studied using fluorescent dye. Concentration of calcium and the activity of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were evaluated by commercial kits. Results: SNP with the concentration of 1000 µM significantly reduced viability from day 5 to day 20, but 100 µM did not affect the viability until the day 15. The low concentration of SNP increased matrix deposition from day 10 and reached almost its maximum (4.40 ± 2.4) at the day 15. Also, increasing the activity of ALP (419 ± 2.2), due to low concentration of SNP, started at day 10 and continued till the day 20, while LDH (2026 ± 11) and AST (25.6 ± 0.4) elevations were observed from day 5 onwards. In case of ALT, we observed a significant decrease (36%) from day 5 till day 20. Conclusion: Based on our findings, low concentrations of SNP might be useful in the promotion of bone repair.
