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

Inflammation is a major risk factor for osteoporosis, and reducing inflammatory levels is important for the prevention of osteoporosis. Although nuclear receptor 77 (Nur77) protects against inflammation in a variety of diseases, its role in osteoporosis is unknown. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to investigate the osteoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of Nur77. The microCT and haematoxylin and eosin staining results indicated that knockout of Nur77 accelerated femoral bone loss in mice. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) results showed that knockout of Nur77 increased the serum levels of hsCRP and IL-6. The expression levels of NF-κB, IL-6, TNF-α and osteoclastogenesis factors (TRAP, NFATC1, Car2, Ctsk) in the femurs of Nur77 knockout mice were increased significantly. Furthermore, in vitro, shNur77 promoted the differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into osteoclasts by activating NF-κB, which was confirmed by PDTC treatment. Mechanistically, Nur77 inhibited osteoclast differentiation by inducing IκB-α and suppressing IKK-β. In RAW264.7 cells, overexpression of Nur77 alleviated inflammation induced by siIκB-α, while siIKK-β alleviated inflammation induced by shNur77. Consistent with the in vivo studies, we found that compared with control group, older adults with high serum hsCRP levels were more likely to suffer from osteoporosis (OR = 1.76, p < 0.001). Our data suggest that Nur77 suppresses osteoclast differentiation by inhibiting the NF-κB signalling pathway, strongly supporting the notion that Nur77 has the potential to prevent and treat osteoporosis.
