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

backgroundThis study focused on the mechanisms where icariin inhibited chondrocyte apoptosis and angiogenesis by regulating the TDP-43 signaling pathway.

methodsA rat osteoarthritis (OA) model was established by collagenase injection. Histological examination of the articular cartilage and synovial tissue was performed 6 weeks after operation. Cartilage cell line overexpressing TDP-43 and mesenchymal stem cell line (TDP43-MSCs) of the rat TDP43 gene were established.

resultsIn OA rats transplanted with TDP43-mMSCs, TDP43 was highly expressed in chondrocytes (TDP43-HC), while TDP43 expression was low in HC and MSCs-HC (p < 0.05). After the intervention of MSCs-TDP43, high expression of TDP43 induced the apoptosis and death of chondrocytes. After the addition of icariin, late apoptosis and death of TDP43-HC were significantly attenuated. Apoptosis and death of HC, MSCs-HC, and TDP43-HC cells were effectively controlled with icariin, and no apparent cell death was found. ELISA showed that the VEGF and HIF-1 alpha were significantly higher in the rat OA model than the normal control rats.

conclusionTDP43-MSC transplantation interfered with the expression of TDP43 in the articular chondrocytes of OA rats, which may impact on inducing apoptosis of chondrocytes as well as inhibiting the proliferation of chondrocytes. Additionally, TDP43-MSCs appeared to promote the formation of neovascularization in the synovial tissue, which could be significantly attenuated by icariin.
