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

The purpose of the present study was to identify the key long non-coding (lnc)RNAs in the occurrence and development of osteoporosis (OP) and to explore the associated molecular mechanism. First, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets, with key words 'osteoporosis' and 'HG-133A', were screened. RankProd R package was used to calculate the dysregulated lncRNAs in OP. Following this, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) harvested from 3-week-old Sprague Dawley rats were employed for detection of osteoblast differentiation. Following overexpression or interference with X-inactive specific transcript (XIST), osteogenesis-associated genes and proteins in BM-MSCs were detected using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Alizarin Red S staining were also performed to measure the osteogenic ability of BM-MSCs. Results from the two datasets indicated that 6 lncRNAs were dysregulated in OP. Notably, XIST is key lncRNA in diverse diseases, and was subsequently selected for analysis. It was revealed that XIST was significantly upregulated in plasma and monocytes from patients with OP compared with the normal controls. Furthermore, results indicated that overexpression of XIST significantly inhibited osteoblast differentiation in BM-MSCs, as evidenced by the decreased expression of ALP, bone γ-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein and runt related transcription factor 2, reduced ALP activity and a decreased number of calcium deposits. However, interference of XIST exhibited the opposite biological effects in BM-MSCs. Taken together, XIST was highly expressed in the serum and monocytes of patients with OP. In addition, the findings suggested that XIST could inhibit osteogenic differentiation of BM-MSCs.
