Sequential distribution of keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate epitopes during ameloblast differentiation.
Article in The Histochemical journal, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Proteoglycans are complex macromolecules containing one or more glycosaminoglycan chains and exhibiting a variety of biological functions in connective tissues. The aim of the present study was to immunolocalize the distribution of keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate epitopes during initial enamel formation in order to study temporo-spatial expression patterns of these macromolecules. Third molars of four-months-old pigs were used for immunolocalization of keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate epitopes in the developing enamel layer. Tooth organs were prepared for paraffin sections in order to perform indirect immunohistochemistry. The results demonstrated a mutually exclusive positioning between these two epitopes. Keratan sulphate epitopes were observed in pre-secretory pre-ameloblasts and adjacent stratum intermedium while chondroitin sulphate epitopes were demonstrated in secretory ameloblasts and adjacent stratum intermedium. Our findings suggest that proteoglycans containing glycosaminoglycan chains may play a regulatory role during enamel mineralization.
