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

objectiveTo corroborate the efficacy of Jintiange capsules (JTGs) in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) by exploring the potential mechanism of action of synovial mesenchymal stem cell exosomes (SMSC-Exos) and articular chondrocytes (ACs) through transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq).

methodsType II collagenase was used to induce OA in rats. The efficacy of JTGs was confirmed by macroscopic observation of articular cartilage, micro-CT observation, and safranin fast green staining. After SMSC-Exos and ACs were qualified, RNA-seq was used to screen differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs. The target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs in Synovial mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs) were predicted based on the multiMiR R package. The co-differentially expressed genes of SMSC-Exos and ACs were obtained by venny 2.1.0. The miRNA-mRNA regulatory network was constructed by Cytoscape software. Based on the OmicShare platform, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis was performed on the mRNA regulated by key miRNAs. Expression trend analysis was performed for co-differentially expressed genes. Correlation analysis was performed on micro-CT efficacy indicators, co-differentially expressed genes mRNA and miRNA.

resultsThe efficacy of each administration group of JTGs was significant compared with the model group. SMSC-Exos and ACs were identified by their characteristics. The expression of rno-miR-23a-3p, rno-miR-342-3p, rno-miR-146b-5p, rno-miR-501-3p, rno-miR-214-3p was down-regulated in OA pathological state, and the expression of rno-miR-222-3p, rno-miR-30e-3p, rno-miR-676, and rno-miR-192-5p expression was up-regulated, and the expression of all these miRNAs was reversed after the intervention with JTGs containing serum. The co-differentially expressed genes were enriched in the interleukin 17 signaling pathway, tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, transforming growth factor-β signaling pathway, etc. The expression trends of Ccl7, Akap12, Grem2, Egln3, Arhgdib, Ccl20, Mmp12, Pla2g2a, and Nr4a1 were significant. There was a correlation between micro-CT pharmacodynamic index, mRNA, and miRNA.

conclusionJTGs can improve the degeneration of joint cartilage and achieve the purpose of cartilage protection, which can be used for the treatment of OA. SMSCs-related miRNA expression profiles were significantly altered after the intervention with JTGs containing serum. The 9 co-differentially expressed genes may be the key targets for the efficacy of JTGs in the treatment of OA rats, which can be used for subsequent validation.
