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

A common magnetic resonance imaging pattern of bone marrow lesion has been described in numerous pathological entities. However, despite intensive research, its etiopathological pathways and repercussions on disease progression remain controversial. From our current knowledge, subchondral bone represents an active site of remodelling fulfilling both mechanical and biological joint requirements. Alteration of bone remodelling activity, as one of the major characteristics of bone marrow lesions, can potentially lead to biological and structural impairment of the affected tissue and consequently the entire joint. The discovered close connection between subchondral bone biology and its structural changes together with parallel changes in overlying cartilage is setting the scene for a potentially new concept. In this "Two Pillar" concept both structure and biology of subchondral bone (and its biomechanical and biochemical interference with the layer above) represent the foundations of the structure and function of articular cartilage. In light of the proposed concept, we will review current knowledge on aetiology, pathogenesis, and clinical presentation of BML and correlate it to existing and emerging treatment options.
