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

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease involving the whole joint that seriously reduces the living standards of individuals. Traditional treatments include physical therapy, administration of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs and injection of glucocorticoids or hyaluronic acid into the joints. However, these methods have limited efficacy and it is difficult to reverse the progression of OA, therefore it is urgent to find new effective treatment methods. Immune microenvironment is significant in the occurrence and development of OA. Recent studies have shown that macrophages are important targets for the treatment of OA. Macrophages are polarized into M1 pro-inflammatory phenotype and M2 anti-inflammatory phenotype under stimulation of different factors, which release and regulate inflammatory response and cartilage growth. Accumulating studies have tried to alleviate OA by regulating macrophage homeostasis. The present study summarized the related studies, discuss the mechanism of various therapeutic reagents on OA, expound the molecular mechanism of drug effect on OA and attempted to provide clues for the treatment of OA.
