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

Osteoarthritis (OA) is an age-associated disease characterized by chronic joint pain resulting from degradation of articular cartilage, inflammation of the synovial lining, and changes to the subchondral bone. Despite the wide prevalence, no FDA-approved disease-modifying drugs exist. Recent evidence has demonstrated that epigenetic dysregulation of multiple molecular pathways underlies OA pathogenesis, providing a new mechanistic and therapeutic axis with the advantage of targeting multiple deregulated pathways simultaneously. In this review, we focus on the epigenetic regulators that have been implicated in OA, their individual roles, and potential crosstalk. Finally, we discuss the pharmacological molecules that can modulate their activities and discuss the potential advantages and challenges associated with epigenome-based therapeutics for OA.
