Periostin regulation and cartilage degradation early after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

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
OBJECTIVE AND
designThe purpose of this study was to explore pathological processes during the first 4 weeks after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). SUBJECTS: Sixteen ACL-injured patients (8 females/8 males, mean age = 19.1, mean BMI = 28.6).
methodsArthrocentesis was performed 1 and 4 weeks after ACLR. Proteins in the synovial fluid were identified using nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS. Differentially up- or down-regulated proteins were identified and quantified, and a pathway analysis was performed. All identified proteins were mapped into a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, and networks of PPIs with a combined score > 0.9 were then visualized.
resultsSeven pathways were upregulated after ACLR: PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction, focal adhesion, protein digestion and absorption, ameobiasis, and platelet activation. Network analyses identified 8 proteins that were differentially upregulated with strong PPI interactions (periostin and 7 collagen-related proteins). Increases in periostin moderately correlated with increases in a synovial fluid biomarker of type II cartilage degradation (ρ = 0.51, p = 0.06).
conclusionPro-inflammatory pathways and periostin were upregulated after ACLR. Periostin demonstrated strong network connections with markers of collagen breakdown, and future work is needed to determine whether periostin may offer a biomarker of early cartilage degradation after ACLR and/or play an active role in early post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) progression.
