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

Age-induced decline in osteogenic potential of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) potentiates osteoporosis and increases the risk for bone fractures. Despite epidemiology studies reporting concurrent development of vascular and bone diseases in the elderly, the underlying mechanisms for the vascular-bone cross-talk in aging are largely unknown. In this study, we show that accelerated endothelial aging deteriorates bone tissue through paracrine repression of Wnt-driven-axis in BMSCs. Here, we utilize physiologically aged mice in conjunction with our transgenic endothelial progeria mouse model (Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome; HGPS) that displays hallmarks of an aged bone marrow vascular niche. We find bone defects associated with diminished BMSC osteogenic differentiation that implicate the existence of angiocrine factors with long-term inhibitory effects. microRNA-transcriptomics of HGPS patient plasma combined with aged-vascular niche analyses in progeria mice reveal abundant secretion of Wnt-repressive microRNA-31-5p. Moreover, we show that inhibition of microRNA-31-5p as well as selective Wnt-activator CHIR99021 boosts the osteogenic potential of BMSCs through de-repression and activation of the Wnt-signaling, respectively. Our results demonstrate that the vascular niche significantly contributes to osteogenesis defects in aging and pave the ground for microRNA-based therapies of bone loss in elderly.
