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

Spermidine (SPD) is an organic compound known for its powerful antioxidant stress and anti-aging properties, and whether SPD has the ability to reduce bone mass in elderly iron overload rats is unknown. The study aimed to assess SPD's impact on iron overload-induced bone loss in elderly rats. In our aged rat model, we found that iron overload negatively influences bone metabolism and remodeling, resulting in decreased bone mineral density and increased bone loss. However, SPD treatment effectively alleviated these harmful effects, as shown by reduced serum levels of MDA and increased SOD and GSH levels. Additionally, SPD-treated rats exhibited enhanced bone mass and higher expression of OC, BMP2, SIRT1, and SOD2 in their bones. Moreover, SPD restored the imbalance in bone metabolism by counteracting the inhibition of osteogenic differentiation and promoting osteoclast differentiation induced by iron overload in MC3T3-E1 and RAW264.7 cells affected by EX527. In summary, our findings suggest that SPD's antioxidant properties may exert anti-osteoporosis effects through activation of the SIRT1/SOD2 signaling pathway.
