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

Endplate sclerosis is a notable aspect of spine degeneration or aging, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we report that senescent macrophages accumulate in the sclerotic endplates of lumbar spine instability (LSI) or aging male mouse model. Specifically, knockout of cdkn2a (p16) in macrophages abrogates LSI or aging-induced angiogenesis and sclerosis in the endplates. Furthermore, both in vivo and in vitro studies indicate that IL-10 is the primary elevated cytokine of senescence-related secretory phenotype (SASP). Mechanistically, IL-10 increases pSTAT3 in endothelial cells, leading to pSTAT3 directly binding to the promoters of Vegfa, Mmp2, and Pdgfb to encourage their production, resulting in angiogenesis. This study provides information on understanding the link between immune senescence and endplate sclerosis, which might be useful for therapeutic approaches.
