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

objectivesThis study aims to investigate the changes in bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) expression and mechanical properties in the healing process of rats with osteoporotic hindlimb fracture.

methods120 rat models of osteoporotic hindlimb fracture were established and randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) used to detect the BMP-2 expression in the rat's callus tissue on the fractured side. The mechanical properties of rat's hindlimb skeleton were examined using a universal material mechanics testing machine.

resultsThe BMP-2 expression in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (p<0.05). The linear correlation analysis showed that the BMP-2 was positively correlated with healing time (r=0.87, p<0.05). The mechanical properties were markedly improved at T2, T3 and T4, which peaked at T4 (p<0.05). However, the mechanical properties in the rats in the experimental group were notably superior to those in the control group at T2, T3, and T4 (p<0.05).

conclusionsThe treatment with strontium ranelate can effectively improve the BMP-2 and bone mechanical properties of the rats with osteoporotic hindlimb fracture in the healing stage and accelerate the healing progress, which could be proved to be an efficacious means in treating osteoporotic fracture.
