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

purposeDisrupted cellular redox balance is associated with various diseases, including osteoarthritis. Although mitochondrial (MT) membrane potential is a proxy for redox balance, the translational potential of this method is limited by exogenous dye. Therefore, the objective of this study was to predict changes in MT membrane potential in response to mechanical loading using dye-free optical redox imaging (ORI). A secondary objective was to determine the effect of loading on ORI metrics.

methodsFull-thickness porcine cartilage strips were subjected to tensile loading at one of two strain rates (1.00 s

resultsIn the GLMM using MT red/green ratio as the dependent variable, ORI metrics, loading rate, and loading vs. control were significant main effect. GLMMs to predict MT red/green from ORI that retained significant main effects resulted in an average difference between predicted and actual values of 7.07%. When analyzing the effect of loading vs. control, loading rate, and zone on ORI metrics, only loading rate showed significance.

conclusionORI can predict MT membrane potential measured by fluorescent dye and has the possibility to be developed as a clinical tool to evaluate cartilage redox balance.
