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

objectiveDetermine if LLP2A-Ale or PTH (1-34) affects the prevalence of glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis (ON) in a mouse model.

methodsEight-week-old young adult male BALB/cJ mice were weight-randomized into Control (Con), glucocorticoid (GC)-only, or concurrent treatments with GC and LLP2A-Ale (250 μg/kg or 500 μg/kg, IV, Days 1, 14, 28) or parathyroid hormone hPTH (1-34) (40 μg/kg, 5×/week). Mice were necropsied after 45 days for qualitative evaluation of prevalent ON and quantitative evaluation of vascularity in the distal femoral epiphysis (DFE); and quantitative evaluation of bone mass, microarchitecture, and strength in the distal femoral metaphysis and lumbar vertebral body.

resultsThe prevalence of ON was 14% in the Con group and 36% in the GC-only group (

conclusionNeither LLP2A-Ale nor hPTH (1-34) reduced the prevalence of GC-induced ON, compared to GC-only mice. However, GC-treated mice given LLP2A-Ale or hPTH (1-34) had better bone mass, microarchitecture, and strength in trabecular-rich regions, and higher levels of vascularity than GC-only mice.
