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

Introduction: Diabetes and osteoporosis are common metabolic diseases. Abnormal high glucose can lead to the apoptosis of osteoblasts. Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular process that degrades proteins or organelles. In the present study, we comparatively analyzed the effects of high glucose and glucose fluctuation on apoptosis and autophagy of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Material and methods: MC3T3-E1 cells were respectively treated with different concentrations of D-glucose: 5.5 mM for the control group, 25 mM for the high glucose group and 5.5/25 mM for the glucose fluctuation group. Results: High glucose and glucose fluctuation decreased MC3T3-E1 proliferation and activated autophagy. Also, high glucose and glucose fluctuation might induce the production of reactive oxygen species, decline the mitochondrial membrane potential and trigger apoptosis. The differences in the glucose fluctuation treatment group were more significant. Moreover, N-acetylcysteine, an antioxidant reagent, dramatically eliminated the intracellular reactive oxygen species induced by high glucose and glucose fluctuation, and significantly inhibited the autophagy and apoptosis in MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Furthermore, treatment with chloroquine, an inhibitor of autophagy, significantly increased the apoptosis of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Conclusions: High glucose, especially high glucose fluctuation, inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis and autophagy of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. This may occur through inducing oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage in the osteoblasts.
