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
objectiveNuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is shown to as a negative-regulatory cause in osteoclasts differentiation. Cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) is verified to regulate osteoclast differentiation, though with diversed results.
methodsIn current research, we studied the Nrf2 role on osteoclast differentiation regulation with the CB2-selective agonists, AM1241, or CB2-selective antagonist, AM630, in RAW 264.7 macrophages. The nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation activator was confirmed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining as well as the TRAP activity analysis. In addition, Nrf2 siRNA was used to characterize the function of Nrf2 during osteoclast differentiation. We analyzed HO-1 and Nrf2 proteins levels with western blotting.
resultsThe results showed that AM1241 promoted, while AM630 suppressed, osteoclast differentiation in RAW 264.7 cells. Both AM1241 and AM630 increased the expressions of HO-1 and Nrf2. Nrf2 silencing promoted osteoclast differentiation and abolished the function of AM630 to inhibit osteoclast differentiation.
conclusionsOur results suggested that Nrf2 was required for inhibiting osteoclast differentiation induced by RANKL of RAW 264.7 cells by AM630, which may provide the insights of a novel method to treat osteoclastogenic bone disease.
