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

The monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced osteoarthritis (OA) may lead to cartilage degeneration and histopathological lesions. However, the correlation between inflammatory reaction and subchondral bone remodeling in a rodent osteoarthritic model is ambiguous. In this study, intra-articular injection of MIA was performed in 36 four-week-old specific pathogen-free male Wistar rats to induce OA. After 4 weeks of intervention, changes in intrinsic structural properties of the subchondral bones were measured, and the histological evaluation, as well as biochemical analysis, was conducted. We found that intra-articular injection of MIA increased chondrocyte apoptosis and promoted cartilage matrix degradation, such as cartilage surface defects and shallow or disappearing staining. MIA also induced inflammation, improved the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, and matrix metalloproteinase, and decreased the expression of cartilage-specific proteins with the extension of modeling time. Meanwhile, the MIA also significantly accelerated the subchondral bone remodeling, as shown by the decreased subchondral bone density, thinning of trabeculae, disordered cartilage structure, and morphology. In conclusion, we have shown that MIA-induced rodent osteoarthritic model would cause decreased subchondral bone density, sparse trabecular bone, and other manifestations of osteoporosis accompanied by an inflammatory response, which would worsen with the progression of modeling time. Our results suggest that different phases of MIA-induced OA are associated with the changes in subchondral bone microstructure and the progression of local inflammation.
