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

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type V is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by the c.-14C > T mutation in the interferon-induced transmembrane protein 5 gene (IFITM5), however, its onset mechanism remains unclear. In this study, heterozygous c.-14C > T mutant mice were developed to investigate the effect of immunosuppressants (FK506 and rapamycin) on OI type V. Among the mosaic mice generated by Crispr/Cas9-based technology, mice with less than 40% mosaic ratio of c.-14C > T mutation survived, whereas those with more than 48% mosaic ratio exhibited lethal skeletal abnormalities with one exception. All heterozygous mutants obtained by mating mosaic mice with wild-type mice exhibited a perinatal lethal phenotype due to severe skeletal abnormalities. Administration of FK506, a calcineurin inhibitor, in the heterozygous fetuses improved bone mineral content (BMC) of the neonates, although it did not save the neonates from the lethal effects of the mutation, whereas rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor, reduced BMC, suggesting that mTOR signaling is involved in the bone mineralization of heterozygous mutants. These findings could clarify certain aspects of the onset mechanism of OI type V and enable development of therapeutics for this condition.
