Anabolic Response of Intermittent Parathyroid Hormone and Alendronate on the Osteochondral Tissue of TMJ.
Article in Cartilage, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveTo characterize the effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and alendronate (Alend) on the osteochondral tissue of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-six male and female transgenic reporter mice, 4 to 5 weeks old were divided into 6 groups: (1) Control group: Saline was injected daily for 14 days; (2) PTH: PTH was injected daily for 14 days; (3) Alend: Alend was injected every alternate days for 14 days; (4) Combined PTH and Alend: PTH was injected daily and Alend injected every alternate days for 14 days; (5) PTH then Alend: PTH was injected daily for 14 days followed by Alend injections in alternate days for 14 days; and (6) PTH wait Alend: PTH was injected daily for 14 days. There was a waiting period of 1 week before administration of Alend in alternate days for 14 days. Mice were injected with 5-ethnyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), 48 and 24 hours prior to euthanization.
resultsThere was significant increase in bone volume and decrease in osteoclastic activity in groups in which Alend was administered after PTH in both gender. There was significant increase in cartilage thickness with PTH or Alend alone in females, whereas in males, PTH alone led to increase in cartilage thickness. Chondrocyte apoptosis was significantly decreased with PTH or Alend alone in both male and female. Matrix metallopeptidase 13, and aggreganase-2 (ADAMTS5) expression were significantly decreased with PTH and Alend alone in both gender.
conclusionPTH and Alend administration causes anabolic effects in the osteochondral tissue of TMJ.
