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
Known as a tumour suppressor gene, p53 also plays a key role in controlling the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) has been identified as a potent factor in inducing osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, but its relationship with p53 remains unclear. The present study revealed that TP53 was expressed at higher levels in MSCs from patients with osteoporosis and was associated with the top 10 core central genes found in the current osteoporosis genetic screen. p53 was expressed in C2C12, C3H10T1/2, 3T3-L1, MEFs, and MG-63 cell lines, and could be upregulated by BMP9, as measured by western blotting and reverse-transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Furthermore, overexpression of p53 increased the mRNA and protein levels of osteogenic marker Runx2 and osteopontin, as evaluated by western blotting and RT-qPCR in BMP9-induced MSCs, whereas the p53 inhibitor pifithrin (PFT)-α attenuated these effects. The same trend was found in alkaline phosphatase activities and matrix mineralization, as measured by alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red S staining. Moreover, p53 overexpression reduced adipo-differentiation markers of PPARγ and lipid droplet formation, as measured by western blotting, RT-qPCR and oil red O staining, respectively, whereas PFT-α facilitated adipo-differentiation in MSCs. In addition, p53 promoted TGF-β1 expression and inhibition of TGF-β1 by LY364947 partially attenuated the effects of p53 on promoting BMP9-induced MSC osteo-differentiation and inhibiting adipo-differentiation. The inhibitory effect of PFT-α on osteogenic markers and the promoting effect on adipogenic markers can be reversed when combined with TGF-β1. TGF-β1 may enhance the promotion of osteo-differentiation of MSCs by p53 through inhibition of adipo-differentiation. Collectively, by promoting BMP9-induced MSCs bone differentiation and inhibiting adipose differentiation, p53 may be a novel therapeutic target for bone-related diseases.
