Article in RMD open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveChondrocytes of the synovial joint sense and respond to changes in osmolarity to maintain joint homeostasis. We hypothesised that an abnormal response to osmotic stress is a contributing factor to loss of joint homeostasis and the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Our goal was to identify whether genetic variants affecting the response to osmotic stress were associated with susceptibility to OA.
methodsGenomic analysis of independent families with dominant inheritance of OA revealed novel
resultsWe identified novel coding variants of
conclusionsOur data indicate elevated WNK2 signalling is associated with heightened susceptibility to OA. We hypothesise the synergistic effects of hyperosmotic stress and high WNK2 activity promote the development of OA.
