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

Individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are prone to fracture at numerous skeletal sites despite presenting with a higher bone mineral density (BMD). The accumulation of Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) in the bone tissues of patients with T2D could be contributing to this paradox of increased skeletal fragility with higher BMD. AGEs can also impair bone cell homeostasis via the receptor for AGEs (RAGE). To investigate the effects of diabetes, AGE accumulation, and RAGE signaling on mouse cortical bone, we utilized male and female leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) diabetic mice from three age groups ranging from 3 to 12 months of age, which were crossed with mice carrying constitutively active alleles for a RAGE nullifying point mutation (RAGE
