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

The mandibular condyle is a critical growth center in craniofacial bone development, especially during postnatal stages. Postnatal condyle osteogenesis requires precise spatiotemporal coordination of growth factor signaling cascades and hierarchical gene regulatory networks. Plagl1, which encodes a zinc finger transcription factor, is a paternally expressed gene. We demonstrate that PLAGL1 is highly expressed in cranial neural crest cell (CNCC)-derived lineage cells in mouse condyles. Using the CNCC-derived lineage-specific Plagl1 knockout mouse model, we evaluate the function of PLAGL1 during postnatal mouse condyle development. Our findings show that PLAGL1 contributes significantly to osteoblast differentiation, and its deficiency impairs osteogenic lineage differentiation, which consequently disrupts mandibular condyle development. Mechanistically, insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) in complex with IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) has been identified as the principal PLAGL1 effector responsible for osteogenic regulation during postnatal condyle morphogenesis. Plagl1 deficiency significantly downregulates the IGF2/IGFBP pathway, leading to disordered glucose metabolism, defective extracellular matrix organization, and impaired ossification. Exogenous IGF2 treatment rescues impaired osteoblast differentiation caused by Plagl1 deficiency. In conclusion, the PLAGL1-IGF2 axis is a critical regulator of osteogenesis during mandibular condyle development.
