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

Aging is associated with excessive bone loss that is not counteracted with the development of new bone. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related bone loss are not completely clear. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a population of heterogenous immature myeloid cells with immunosuppressive functions that are known to stimulate tumor-induced bone lysis. In this study, we investigated the association of MDSCs and age-related bone loss in mice. Our results shown that aging increased the accumulation of MDSCs in the bone marrow and spleen, while in the meantime potentiated the osteoclastogenic activity of the CD11b
