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
Accumulating evidence indicates that cryptochrome circadian regulatory (CRY) proteins have emerged as crucial regulators of osteogenic differentiation. However, the associated mechanisms are quite elusive. In this study, we show that knockdown of CRY2 downregulated the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteopontin (OPN) to facilitate osteoblast differentiation. Further study identified that CRY2 was directly targeted by microRNA (miR)-7-5p, which was highly induced during osteoblast differentiation. The expression of Runx2, ALP, collagen type I alpha 1 (Col1a1), and OCN was upregulated by overexpression of miR-7-5p and induction of osteoblast differentiation. Moreover, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) transcriptionally activated miR-7-5p to significantly enhance the expression of above osteogenic marker genes and mineral formation. However, overexpression of CRY2 abolished the osteogenic differentiation induced by miR-7-5p overexpression. Silencing of CRY2 unraveled the binding of CRY2 with the circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (CLOCK)/brain and muscle ARNT-like 1 (BMAL1) complex to release CLOCK/BMAL1, which facilitated the binding of CLOCK/BMAL1 to the promoter region of the P300 E-box to stimulate the transcription of P300. P300 subsequently promoted the acetylation of histone 3 and the formation of a transcriptional complex with Runx2 to enhance osteogenesis. Taken together, our study revealed that CRY2 is repressed by STAT3/miR-7-5p to promote osteogenic differentiation through CLOCK/BMAL1/P300 signaling. The involved molecules may be potentially targeted for treatment of osteoporosis.
