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

It has been reported that the disaccharide composition of dermatan sulphate shows transient changes after epicutaneous application of the hapten 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene to mouse skin, and that these changes are most conspicuous in healing skin on day 15 after chemical insult [Kuwaba, Nomura, Irie and Koyama (1999) J. Dermatol. Sci. 19, 23-30]. In the present study it was found that the molecular size of dermatan sulphate was increased on day 15 after hapten application. The molecular size of decorin increased in healing skin, whereas the size of dermatan-sulphate-depleted core protein did not increase. The length and localization of decorin dermatan sulphate were investigated by electron microscopy. Dermatan sulphate filaments oriented orthogonally to collagen fibrils were longer in healing skin than in control skin. In control skin, dermatan sulphate filaments were found among tightly packed collagen fibrils. In contrast, the interfibrillar gaps between each collagen fibril were enlarged in healing skin; elongated dermatan sulphate filaments extended from the surface of collagen fibrils across the enlarged gap. These results suggest that the increase in molecular size of decorin dermatan sulphate is important in organizing collagen fibrils separated by enlarged interfibrillar gaps in healing skin.
