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

backgroundRemifentanil (RFT) is an opioid analgesic with a unique pharmacokinetic profile, and plays an important role in the intra- and post-operative periods. Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTO) is a particular type of osteoarthritis (OA) that occurs secondary to a traumatic injury. In the present study, we investigated the effects of RFT both

methods

resultsThe results indicated that RFT improved cartilage damage, enhanced articular cartilage formation, and inhibited the degradation of cartilage matrix in PTO model rats. Compared with the control group, the protein levels of Osterix (OSX), Collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1), and osteocalcin (OC) were down-regulated in PTO model rats. RFT also inhibited the interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-induced apoptosis of chondrocytes

conclusionsRFT has significant potential as a therapeutic intervention to ameliorate PTO and provides a foundation for further clinical studies.
