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

objectiveThe current therapeutic strategy for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) focuses on early intervention to attenuate disease progression, preserve joint function, and defer joint replacement timing. Sequential transcriptomic changes of articular cartilage in a rat model were investigated to explore the molecular mechanism in early PTOA progression.

designAnterior cruciate ligament transection and medial meniscectomy (ACLT + MMx)-induced PTOA model was applied on male Wistar rats. Articular cartilages were harvested at time 0 (naïve), 2 week, and 4 weeks after surgery. Affymetrix Rat genome 230 2.0 array was utilized to analyze the gene expression changes of articular cartilages.

resultsWe identified 849 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 2 weeks and 223 DEGs at 4 weeks post-ACLT + MMx surgery compared with time 0 (naïve group). Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were performed to gain further insights from these DEGs. 22 novel genes and 1 novel KEGG pathway (axon guidance) in cartilage degeneration of osteoarthritis were identified. Axon guidance molecules-

conclusionsOur study identified 22 novel dysregulated genes and axon guidance pathway associated with articular cartilage degeneration in PTOA progression. These findings provide the potential candidates of biomarkers and therapeutic targets for further investigation.
