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

Fractures have a great impact on health all around the world and with fracture healing optimization; this problem could be resolved partially. To make a practical contribution to this issue, the knowledge of bone tissue, cellularity, and metabolism is essential, especially cytoskeletal architecture and its transformations according to external pressures. Special physical and chemical characteristics of the extracellular matrix (ECM) allow the transmission of mechanical stimuli from outside the cell to the plasmatic membrane. The osteocyte cytoskeleton is conformed by a complex network of actin and microtubules combined with crosslinker proteins like vinculin and fimbrin, connecting and transmitting outside stimuli through EMC to cytoplasm. Herein, critical signaling pathways like Cx43-depending ones, MAPK/ERK, Wnt, YAP/TAZ, Rho-ROCK, and others are activated due to mechanical stimuli, resulting in osteocyte cytoskeletal changes and ECM remodeling, altering the tissue and, therefore, the bone. In recent years, the osteocyte has gained more interest and value in relation to bone homeostasis as a great coordinator of other cell populations, thanks to its unique functions. By integrating the latest advances in relation to intracellular signaling pathways, mechanotransmission system of the osteocyte and bone tissue engineering, there are promising experimental strategies, while some are ready for clinical trials. This work aims to show clearly and precisely the integration between cytoskeleton and main molecular pathways in relation to mechanotransmission mechanism in osteocytes, and the use of this theoretical knowledge in therapeutic tools for bone fracture healing.
