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

Osteoarthritis (OA) remains an alarming therapeutic challenge, as conventional intra-articular interventions primarily address symptomatic relief without halting progressive cartilage and bone degeneration. In this study, we investigated the disease-modifying potential of Cyclo(His-Pro) (CHP) in a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced OA rat model. Intra-articular CHP yielded significant clinical improvements, reducing joint edema and reversing OA-induced mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity, as evidenced by lifting behavior, rotarod performance, and hot plate tests. Beyond analgesia, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) analysis showed that CHP preserved subchondral bone architecture, restoring trabecular volume and thickness and reducing serum C-terminal telopeptide of type II collagen (CTX-2), indicative of suppressed cartilage degradation. At the molecular level, CHP reprogrammed the joint microenvironment by suppressing
