The osteocyte and its osteoclastogenic potential.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 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
The skeleton is an organ of dual functionality; on the one hand, it provides protection and structural competence. On the other hand, it participates extensively in coordinating homeostasis globally given that it is a mineral and hormonal reservoir. Bone is the only tissue in the body that goes through strategically consistent bouts of bone resorption to ensure its integrity and organismal survival in a temporally and spatially coordinated process, known as bone remodeling. Bone remodeling is directly enacted by three skeletal cell types, osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and osteocytes; these cells represent the acting force in a basic multicellular unit and ensure bone health maintenance. The osteocyte is an excellent mechanosensory cell and has been positioned as the choreographer of bone remodeling. It is, therefore, not surprising that a holistic grasp of the osteocyte entity in the bone is warranted. This review discusses osteocytogenesis and associated molecular and morphological changes and describes the osteocytic lacunocanalicular network (LCN) and its organization. We highlight new knowledge obtained from transcriptomic analyses of osteocytes and discuss the regulatory role of osteocytes in promoting osteoclastogenesis with an emphasis on the case of osteoclastogenesis in anosteocytic bones. We arrive at the conclusion that osteocytes exhibit several redundant means through which osteoclast formation can be initiated. However, whether osteocytes are true "orchestrators of bone remodeling" cannot be verified from the animal models used to study osteocyte biology
