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

Recently, the translational application of noncoding RNAs is accelerated dramatically. In this regard, discovering therapeutic roles of microRNAs by developing synthetic RNA and vector-based RNA is attracting attention. Here, we studied the effect of BMP2 and miR-424 on the osteogenesis of Wharton's jelly-derived stem cells (WJSCs). For this purpose, human BMP2 and miR-424 DNA codes were cloned in the third generation of lentiviral vectors and then used for HEK-293T cell transfection. Lentiviral plasmids contained miR424, BMP-2, miR424-BMP2, green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes, and helper vectors. The recombinant lentiviral particles transduced the WJSCs, and the osteogenesis was evaluated by real-time PCR, Western blot, Alizarin Red staining, and alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity. According to the results, there was a significant increase in the expression of the BMP2 gene and secretion of Osteocalcin protein in the group of miR424-BMP2. Moreover, the amount of dye deposition in Alizarin Red staining and alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly higher in the mentioned group (
