Bone-Derived Factors: Regulating Brain and Treating Alzheimer's Disease.
Review in Biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In recent years, the bidirectional regulatory mechanism of the bone-brain axis has become a hotspot for interdisciplinary research. In this paper, we systematically review the anatomical and functional links between bone and the central nervous system, focusing on the regulation of brain function by bone-derived signals and their clinical translational potential. At the anatomical level, the blood-brain barrier permeability mechanism and the unique structure of the periventricular organs establish the anatomical basis for bone-brain information transmission. Innovative discoveries indicate that the bone cell network (bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and bone marrow monocytes) directly regulates neuroplasticity and the inflammatory microenvironment through the secretion of factors such as osteocalcin, lipid transporter protein 2, nuclear factor κB receptor-activating factor ligand, and fibroblast growth factor 23, as well as exosome-mediated remote signaling. Clinical studies have revealed a bidirectional vicious cycle between osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease: reduced bone density exacerbates Alzheimer's disease pathology through pathways such as PDGF-BB, while AD-related neurodegeneration further accelerates bone loss. The breakthrough lies in the discovery that anti-osteoporotic drugs, such as bisphosphonates, improve cognitive function. In contrast, neuroactive drugs modulate bone metabolism, providing new strategies for the treatment of comorbid conditions. Additionally, whole-body vibration therapy shows potential for non-pharmacological interventions by modulating bone-brain interactions through the mechano-osteoclast signaling axis. In the future, it will be essential to integrate multiple groups of biomarkers to develop early diagnostic tools that promote precise prevention and treatment of bone-brain comorbidities. This article provides a new perspective on the mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of neuroskeletal comorbidities.
