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 a progressive loss of physiological function and increased susceptibility to major pathologies. Degenerative diseases in both brain and bone including Alzheimer disease (AD) and osteoporosis are common in aging groups. TERC is RNA component of telomerase, and its deficiency accelerates aging-related phenotypes including impaired life span, organ failure, bone loss, and brain dysfunction. In this study, we investigated the traits of bone marrow-brain cross-tissue communications in young mice, natural aging mice, and premature aging (TERC deficient, TERC-KO) mice by single-cell transcriptome sequencing. Differentially expressed gene analysis of brain as well as bone marrow between premature aging mouse and young mouse demonstrated aging-related inflammatory response and suppression of neuron development. Further analysis of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) landscape indicated that TERC-KO perturbation was enriched in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Series of inflammatory associated myeloid cells was activated in premature aging mice brain and bone marrow. Cross-tissue comparison of TERC-KO mice brain and bone marrow illustrated obvious ligand-receptor communications between brain glia cells, macrophages, and bone marrow myeloid cells in premature aging-induced inflammation. Enrichment of co-regulation modules between brain and bone marrow identified premature aging response genes such as Dusp1 and Ifitm3. Our study provides a rich resource for understanding premature aging-associated perturbation in brain and bone marrow and supporting myeloid cells and endothelial cells as promising therapy targeting for age-related brain-bone diseases.
