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

Osteogenic differentiation originating from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) requires tight co-ordination of transcriptional factors, signaling pathways and biomechanical cues. Dysregulation of such reciprocal networks may influence the proliferation and apoptosis of MSCs and osteoblasts, thereby impairing bone metabolism and homeostasis. An increasing number of studies have shown that long non-coding (lnc)RNAs are involved in osteogenic differentiation and thus serve an important role in the initiation, development, and progression of bone diseases such as tumors, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. It has been reported that the lncRNA, maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3), regulates osteogenic differentiation of multiple MSCs and also acts as a critical mediator in the development of bone formation and associated diseases. In the present review, the proposed mechanisms underlying the roles of MEG3 in osteogenic differentiation and its potential effects on bone diseases are discussed. These discussions may help elucidate the roles of MEG3 in osteogenic differentiation and highlight potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the treatment of bone diseases.
