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

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents, with a high metastatic potential. Despite dramatic changes in OS treatments over the past decades, their efficiency still remains limited, with severe complications and adverse side effects. Key mechanisms underlining tumorigenesis, metastasis and chemotherapy resistance are currently lacking, in turn hindering any progress with respect to developing effective and safe therapeutic strategies against OS. Recently, ADAMTS7, a member of the disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS) family, was shown to be involved in osteogenic differentiation-related pathological processes. ADAMTS7 promotes vascular calcification via disturbing the balance between osteogenic bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)2 (regulating osteogenic differentiation and bone formation during development) and its natural inhibitor cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (Comp). Hence, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of ADAMTS7 in the pathological process of OS. We first revealed that ADAMTS7 was decreased in OS tissues. Lower expression of ADAMTS7 was correlated with poor histological differentiation and an advanced clinical stage of OS. Through loss- and gain-function analysis, we further revealed that ADAMTS7 attenuated cell proliferation, migration and invasion, at the same time as promoting the expression of osteogenic differentiation markers in two OS cell lines: MG63 and SAOS2. Moreover, Comp was responsible for the effects of ADAMTS7 on OS pathogenesis by reinforcing cell osteogenic differentiation mediated by BMP2 in vitro. In conclusion, ADAMTS7-mediated degradation of Comp may provide a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of OS.
