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.
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
introductionHuman umbilical cord blood-derived MSCs (hUC-MSCs) have the potential to differentiate into osteoblasts. This study investigated the function and potential mechanisms of a novel lncRNA LINC02381 in hUC-MSC osteogenic differentiation. MATERIALS AND
methodshUC-MSCs were maintained in osteogenic differentiation medium. RT-qPCR assay was performed to assess LINC02381 expression. Alizarin Red S (ARS) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining were performed to evaluate osteogenic differentiation. The interaction between miR-21 and LINC0238/KLF12 was determined by luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay was used to confirm the transcriptional regulation of KLF12 on Wnt4 promoter. The nuclear translocation of β-catenin was evaluated using immunofluorescence. hUC-MSCs seeded on Bio-Oss Collagen scaffolds were transplanted into nude mice to assess in vivo osteogenesis. Bone formation was observed by H&E and Masson's trichrome staining. OSX and OPN levels were assessed by immunohistochemistry.
resultsLINC02381 was up-regulated in the clinical samples of osteoporotic patients. However, LINC02381 expression was reduced during osteogenic differentiation of hUC-MSCs. Enforced expression of LINC02381 suppressed the osteogenic differentiation of hUC-MSCs. Mechanistically, LINC02381 sponged miR-21 to enhance KLF12 expression, which led to the inactivation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Furthermore, miR-21 mimics or KLF12 silencing counteracted LINC02381-induced inhibition of osteogenic differentiation, whereas IWP-4 (an inhibitor of Wnt pathway) abolished this effect.
conclusionIn summary, LINC02381 repressed osteogenic differentiation of hUS-MSCs through sponging miR-21 to enhance KLF12-mediated inactivation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, indicating that LINC02381 might be a therapeutic target for osteoporosis.
