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

Atrophic fracture nonunion is a clinically challenging form of failed bone repair, particularly under inflammatory conditions, but the cell-intrinsic programs that impair the function of skeletal stem/progenitor cells (SSPCs) remain incompletely defined. Here, we integrated public and in-house single-cell RNA sequencing datasets from mouse periosteum, normal fracture healing, and inflammation-associated fracture nonunion models to characterize stromal cell fate changes. Trajectory inference, transcription factor network analysis, and intercellular communication modeling were combined with in vitro and in vivo validation experiments. SSPCs in the nonunion microenvironment were arrested in an undifferentiated state and acquired a pro-inflammatory and pro-ferroptotic phenotype, with enrichment of ferroptosis-related genes including
