Digoxin Attenuates Receptor Activation of NF-κB Ligand-Induced Osteoclastogenesis in Macrophages.
Article in Journal of vascular research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundEven though hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is among the transcriptional factors demonstrated to contribute to the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), the precise mechanism has been unclear. Digoxin is known as an inhibitor of HIF-1α, and shows a protective effect against the progression of AAAs.
objectivesWe tested the effect of digoxin on osteoclastogenesis (OCG) and examined the pathway through which digoxin exerts inhibition of HIF-1α. MATERIALS AND
methodsRAW 264.7 macrophage cells were cultured and stimulated by soluble receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (sRANKL) with or without digoxin. First, we tested the effect of digoxin to attenuate macrophage activation, which led to OCG, characterized by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive macrophages (TPMs).
resultsThe activation of TPMs stimulated by sRANKL was attenuated by digoxin treatment. Furthermore, the receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK)/receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) complex signaling pathway, which is stimulated by HIF-1α, was downregulated by digoxin treatment.
conclusionsThese results show that digoxin attenuates OCG. By inhibition of HIF-1α, digoxin decreases OCG through the downregulation of the RANK/RANKL signaling pathway. Therefore, digoxin is a potential candidate for medical treatment of AAAs.
