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 peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARG) nuclear receptor regulates energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity. In this study, we present novel evidence for an essential role of PPARG in the regulation of osteocyte function, and support for the emerging concept of the conjunction between regulation of energy metabolism and bone mass. We report that PPARG is essential for sclerostin production, a recently approved target to treat osteoporosis. Our mouse model of osteocyte-specific PPARG deletion (Dmp1
