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

Osteocalcin (OCN), a bone-derived hormone, considered as an indicator of bone turnover. Beyond its canonical role in bone metabolism, OCN may have many other functions as well. Studies have shown that it may also regulate glucose and lipid metabolism, cognitive function, sexual function, and more. Recently, OCN has become one interesting hormone with potential effects on acute stress response (ASR), which is essential for vertebrates' survival. This review aims to comprehensively summarize the progress on the role of OCN in the pathophysiology of ASR and to thoroughly analyze the molecular mechanisms and significance of OCN in modulating ASR. In summary, a deeper understanding of OCN's role in the ASR will help reveal how bone-derived signals integrate into stress regulatory networks and may guide the development of novel strategies to prevent or treat stress-related disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression, or stress-aggravated cardiac events). By focusing on the emerging OCN-stress axis, our review highlights an expanding perspective on bone as an endocrine organ influencing stress physiology.
