New Horizons: Translational Aspects of Osteomorphs.
Review in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Osteomorphs are a newly described osteoclast lineage cell in mice, which are suggested to play a significant role in the maintenance of bone resorption. Preclinical investigations revealed that osteomorphs are generated through the fission of multinucleated bone-resorbing osteoclasts and can also re-fuse with existing osteoclasts. Modifications to RANKL signaling have been shown to alter cycles of fission and re-fusion of osteomorphs in mice. These novel findings were also shown to contribute to the rebound phenomenon after cessation of anti-RANKL therapy in mice. Moreover, the absence of osteomorph-specific genes in mice exhibits bone structural and quality phenotypes. Given these insights, it could be speculated that osteomorphs play a significant role in bone homeostasis, bone metabolic diseases, and response to therapeutics. In this review, we discuss these potential translational roles for osteomorphs. Importantly, we highlight the need for future preclinical and clinical studies to verify the presence of osteomorphs in humans and explore further the translational implications of this discovery.
