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

The localization of pyro-antimonate-precipitable Ca2+ in the undecalcified femur and calvaria of neonatal rats was examined. The fixation of bones with pyro-antimonate-glutaraldehyde followed by pyro-antimonate-osmium (two-step method) resulted in better preservation of tissue and more precise localization of precipitates than did the direct immersion of specimens in pyro-antimonate-osmium solution (one-step method). The precipitate was frequently observed within the endoplasmic reticulum of obsteoblasts. Most vacuoles in osteoclasts contained precipitate. By contrast, the mitochondria in these cells were associated with small amounts of precipitate. There was no evidence of precipitate in the Golgi apparatus. The presence of calcium in the precipitate was verified by EGTA treatment and X-ray microanalysis. This study demonstrated that (1) the two-step pyro-antimonate method is a useful and reliable procedure for visualizing Ca2+, and (2) cellular Ca2- can be successfully localized in undecalcified bone by this method.
