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

The receptor-activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and its specific receptor RANK have essential roles in regulating bone metabolism and the immune system. Besides, the RANKL/RANK system plays important roles in multiple physiological and pathophysiological processes such as mammary gland development during pregnancy, cancer development, and bone metastasis. While it has long been known that RANKL and RANK are expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), the physiological roles of RANKL/RANK system in the CNS and the underlying molecular mechanisms have been elucidated recently. Over the last decade, several reports showed that the central RANKL/RANK system plays important roles in regulating body temperature, brain ischemia, autoimmune encephalopathy, feeding behavior, and energy metabolism. In this review, it is provided an updated information regarding the roles of RANKL/RANK system in the CNS.
