β-Catenin: A Key Molecule in Osteoblast Differentiation.
Review in Biomolecules, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
β-catenin is a key regulator of osteoblast differentiation, proliferation, and bone homeostasis. Through its interaction with transcription factors such as TCF/LEF, Runx2, and Osx, it coordinates gene expression essential for osteogenesis. The aim of this review is to demonstrate how β-catenin signaling is modulated by various physiological and pathological factors, including mechanical loading, oxidative stress, HIV-1 gp120, fluoride, implant topography, and microRNAs. These factors influence Wnt/β-catenin signaling through different mechanisms, often exerting opposing effects on osteoblast function. By integrating these modulators, we provide a comprehensive view of the dynamic regulation of β-catenin in bone biology. Understanding this complexity may provide insight into novel therapeutic strategies targeting β-catenin in bone regeneration, metabolic bone diseases, and pathologies such as HIV-associated bone loss or osteosarcoma.
