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

purposeLocked nucleic acid (LNA)-modified anti-microRNAs have been demonstrated to target mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to treat bone diseases. However, the "off-target" effect limits its clinical application.

methodsWe selected specific aptamer M4 of MSCs and employed the three-way junction (3WJ) as the core scaffold to construct nanoparticles (3WJ-M4-LNA) for specific delivery of anti-miRNA 138.

resultsOur results suggested that the 3WJ-M4-LNA nanoparticles, not 3WJ-M4 or 3WJ-LNA, can specifically deliver anti-miRNA to MSCs, resulting in significant inhibition of miRNA 138 expression. Our experiment further confirmed that the nanoparticles can promote MSCs' osteogenic differentiation by activating the ERK1/2 pathway. In vivo, the nanoparticles promoted bone formation and improved the bone microarchitecture in rabbit osteoporosis models.

conclusionsThese results indicate that the 3WJ nanoparticles could develop as a specific therapeutic strategy for osteoporosis.
