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.
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
Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) plays an important role in tissue engineering. As the age increased, the cell viability and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs all decreased. Low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 5 (LRP5) was found to promote bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, our study explored the effect of LRP5 on normal and aged PDLSCs and relative mechanism. Here, we found that the expression of LRP5 in PDLSCs of 24 week-old mice was decreased compared with PDLSCs of 5 week-old mice (n = 5). . LRP5 overexpression in PDLSCs increased the intensity of alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining, accompanied with upregulated the levels of RUNX family transcription factor 2, collagen type I, and β-Catenin. LRP5 knockdown displayed the opposite results in PDLSCs in vitro. LRP5 overexpression in aged PDLSCs restored part ability of osteogenic differentiation. Meantime, LRP5 increased the protein expression of phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR) in normal and aged PDLSCs. Immunofluorescence showed that LRP5 increased the accumulation of p-mTOR nucleus. The effect of LRP5 in promoting osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs can be antagonized by mTOR inhibitor rapamycin. These findings suggest that LRP5 positively regulate osteogenic differentiation of normal and aged PDLSCs and may be a potential target for enlarging the application of PDLSCs in tissue regeneration.
