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

One of the unmet needs to be addressed is prognostic biomarkers for early knee osteoarthritis (kOA). We aimed to study the association of urinary collagen type-II C-terminal cleavage neoepitope (uC2C) with the emergence and progression of kOA. The longitudinal data of 330 subjects (aged 32-60 years) from an Estonian population-based cohort were used. The radiographic progression was evaluated by the grading system of Nagaosa et al. of knee compartments at baseline and three years later. The emerging kOA consisted of subjects with developing osteophytes or joint space narrowing, whereas kOA progressors showed aggravation of radiographic grade. Baseline uC2C levels were measured by the IBEX-uC2C assay. At baseline, the subjects were middle-aged (mean age, 47.6 years) and overweight (mean BMI, 28.0 kg/m
