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
backgroundOsteoporosis is a genetic disease caused by the imbalance between osteoblast-led bone formation and osteoclast-induced bone resorption. However, further gene-related pathogenesis remains to be elucidated.
methodsThe aberrant expressed genes in osteoporosis was identified by analyzing the microarray profile GSE100609. Serum samples of patients with osteoporosis and normal group were collected, and the mRNA expression of candidate genes was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The mouse cranial osteoblast MC3T3-E1 cells were treated with dexamethasone (DEX) to mimic osteoporosis in vitro. Alizarin Red staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining methods were combined to measure matrix mineralization deposition of MC3T3-E1 cells. Meanwhile, the expression of osteogenesis related genes including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), Osterix, and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) were evaluated by qRT-PCR and western blotting methods. Then the effects of candidate genes on regulating impede bone loss caused by ovariectomy (OVX) in mice were studied.
resultsCyclin A1 (CCNA1) was found to be significantly upregulated in serum of osteoporosis patients and the osteoporosis model cells, which was in line with the bioinformatic analysis. The osteogenic differentiation ability of MC3T3-E1 cells was inhibited by DEX treatment, which was manifested by decreased Alizarin Red staining intensity, ALP staining intensity, and expression levels of ALP, OCN, OPN, Osterix, and BMP2. The effects of CCNA1 inhibition on regulating osteogenesis were opposite to that of DEX. Then, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis demonstrated that genes negatively associated with CCNA1 were enriched in the TGF-beta signaling pathway. Inhibitor of TGF-beta signaling pathway partly reversed osteogenesis induced by suppressed CCNA1. Furthermore, suppressed CCNA1 relieved bone mass of OVX mice in vivo.
conclusionDownregulation of CCNA1 could activate TGF-beta signaling pathway and promote bone formation, thus playing a role in treatment of osteoporosis.
