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) is one of the most common causes of chronic low back pain, which does great harm to patients' life quality. At present, the existing treatment options are mostly aimed at relieving symptoms, but the long-term efficacy is not ideal. Tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs) are regarded as a type of nanomaterial with excellent biosafety and prominent performance in anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammation. MicroRNA155 is a non-coding RNA involved in various biological processes such as cell proliferation and apoptosis. In this study, a complex named TR155 was designed and synthesised with microRNA155 attached to the vertex of tFNAs, and its effects on the nucleus pulposus cells of intervertebral discs were evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. The experimental results showed that TR155 was able to alleviate the degeneration of intervertebral disc tissue and inhibit nucleus pulposus cell apoptosis via Bcl-2/Bax pathway, indicating its potential to be a promising option for the treatment of IDD.
