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

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) has been well-recognized as one of the causes of vast lower back pain. The objective of the current study intends to elucidate the influence and regulatory molecular mechanisms of c-Jun on IDD. This study established an IDD model of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by needle puncture. An LV5-c-Jun lentiviral vector was constructed and injected into rats' intervertebral disc (IVD) tissue to increase the c-Jun expression following the establishment of modeling. The pathological changes of IVD tissue structure and collagen fibers were visualized following the processes of hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining method and transmission electron microscopy. Real-time PCR, western blot, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA assays were performed to detect the expression levels of TGF-β, TIMP-3, COL2A1, and inflammatory cytokines. The collagen fibers were arranged in parallel and the surface was smooth after
