Sirtuin 6 Overexpression Improves Rotator Cuff Tendon-to-Bone Healing in the Aged.

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
Aging is an independent risk factor for recurrent tearing after surgical repair of rotator cuff ruptures around the tendon-to-bone area. However, aging signature factors and related mechanisms involved in the healing of the rotator cuff are still unknown. We hypothesized that differences in proteins involved in the rotator cuff according to age may affect tendon-to-bone healing. The proteome analysis performed to identify the signature aging proteins of the rotator cuff confirmed the sirtuin signal as an age-specific protein. In particular, the expression of SIRT6 was markedly down-regulated with age. Ingenuity pathway analysis of omics data from age-dependent rat rotator cuffs and linear regression from human rotator cuffs showed SIRT6 to be closely related to the Wnt/β-catenin signal. We confirmed that overexpression of SIRT6 in the rotator cuff and primary tenocyte regulated canonical Wnt signaling by inhibiting the transcriptional expression of sclerostin, a Wnt antagonist. Finally, SIRT6 overexpression promoted tendon-to-bone healing after tenotomy with reconstruction in elderly rats. This approach is considered an effective treatment method for recovery from recurrent rotator cuff tears, which frequently occur in the elderly.
