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

Osteoclasts (OCs) have been the unique cell type exhibiting the bone-resorption activity in body. It is important to identify drugs to resist osteoclastogenesis to manage the bone-loss disorders. Huangqi Sanxian decoction (HQSXD) is utilized for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) for a long history in East Asia. This work aimed to examine HQSXD's activity in OC differentiation. Based on staining with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), it was found that HQSXD suppressed OC generation under the induction of RANKL produced in the bone marrow-derived monocytes/macrophages (BMMs), with no cytotoxic effect. Later analysis like molecular exploration and network pharmacology (NP) suggested the role of HQSXD in suppressing genes associated with osteoclastogenesis via PI3K/Akt-mediated mechanism dose-dependently. This work might illustrate the molecular pharmacological mechanism involved in HQSXD's effect on treating OC-associated disorders. Moreover, NP was found to modernize traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) research.
