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
Context and objective: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced under oxidative stress is important for osteoclastogenesis. As a major member of the metallothionein (MT) family, metallothionein2 (MT2) can scavenge ROS in osteoblasts. However, the role of MT2 in osteoclastogenesis and ROS production in osteoclast precursors (OCPs) is unknown. Material and methods: In this study, we first investigated MT2 expression level in osteoporotic model mice. Next, we explored the roles of MT2 in osteoclastic differentiation and ROS production in OCPs. Ultimately, via rescue assays based on hydrogen peroxide (H Results: Compared with sham operated (Sham) mice, ovariectomized (OVX) mice displayed bone marrow primary OCPs (Ly6C+CD11b-) having higher ROS levels and lower MT2 expression. MT2 overexpression inhibited the formation of mature osteoclasts, while MT2 knockdown was contrary. Moreover, MT2 overexpression inhibited ROS production in OCPs, while MT2 knockdown exhibited the opposite effects. Notably, the inhibitory effect of MT2 overexpression on osteoclastogenesis and ROS production was blocked by the addition of H Conclusion: MT2 inhibits osteoclastogenesis through repressing ROS production in OCPs, which indicates that the strategy of upregulating MT2 in OCPs may be applied to the clinical treatment of osteoclastic bone loss.
