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

Low back pain (LBP) is a common orthopedic disease over the world. Lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is regarded as an important cause of LBP. Shensuitongzhi formula (SSTZF) is a drug used in clinical treatment for orthopedic diseases. It has been found that SSTZF can have a good treatment for IDD. But the exact mechanism has not been clarified. The results showed that SSTZF protects against LSI-induced degeneration of cartilage endplates and intervertebral discs. Meanwhile, SSTZF treatment dramatically reduces the expression of inflammatory factor as well as the expression of catabolism protein and upregulates the expression of anabolism protein in LSI-induced mice. In addition, SSTZF delayed the progression of LSI-induced IDD via downregulation the level of NF-κB signaling key gene RELA and phosphorylation of key protein P65 in endplate chondrocytes. Our study has illustrated the treatment as well as the latent mechanism of SSTZF in IDD.
