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

The diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA) is based on radiological changes that are delayed, along with clinical symptoms. Early and very early diagnosis at the stage of molecular pathology may eventually offer an opportunity for early therapeutic intervention that may retard and prevent future damage. Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) is a non-collagenous extracellular matrix protein that promotes the secretion and aggregation of collagen and contributes to the stability of the extracellular matrix. There are contradictory literature data and currently, the parameter is used only for scientific purposes and its significance is not well-determined. The serum level of COMP in patients with metabolic type OA of the knee has not been evaluated. The aim of the study was to analyze serum COMP levels in metabolic knee OA and controls with different BMI. Our results showed that the mean COMP values were significantly higher in the control group (1518.69 ± 232.76 ng/mL) compared to the knee OA patients (1294.58 ± 360.77 ng/mL) (
