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

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a pathological process that initially occurs in the weight-bearing field of the femoral head. Due to the unknown pathogenesis, this study was for the investigation of the effect of microRNA-141 (miR-141) targeting transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2) on regulating osteoblast activity and osteoclast activity in steroid-induced ONFH.Tissues of ONFH and normal femoral head were collected for detecting the expression of miR-141 and TGF-β2. A rat model of ONFH was constructed by injection of hormones, and transfected with miR-141 inhibitors and overexpressed TGF-β2. The apoptosis of bone cells was detected by TUNEL staining. The expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), osteoprotegerin ligand (OPGL), Bcl-2, Bax, Runx2, BMP2 and RANK were detected.Highly expressed miR-141 and lowly expressed TGF-β2 existed in femoral head tissues in ONFH. Inhibited miR-141 resulted in elevated TGF-β2 in femoral head tissues in ONFH of rats. Depressed miR-141 or overexpressed TGF-β2 inhibited the apoptosis of bone cells of rats with ONFH and induced elevated OPG, Bcl-2, BMP2, Runx2 and declined OPGL, Bax and RANK expression in the femoral head tissues of rats with ONFH.Altogether, we find that down-regulated miR-141 promotes osteoblast activity and inhibits osteoclast activity to ameliorate ONFH via up-regulated TGF-β2 expression.
