Morphometrical analysis of multinucleated giant cells in subdermal implants of poly-lactic acid in rats.

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
The use of bioabsorbable polymers in (bio)medical applications has increased greatly in recent years, mainly because of their good bioreabsorption and biocompatibility. In this work, we examined the development of foreign body giant cells in intimate contact with porous membranes of poly L-lactic acid containing 7% of plasticizer triethylcitrate implanted in the backs of rats. The membranes were removed 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, 90 and 180 days after implantation, along with a portion of the tissue around the implant. Histological analysis of the implant and tissue revealed the formation of a fibrous capsule from the seventh day of implantation onwards. Foreign body giant cells appeared from the seventh day and increased in number up to the twenty-eighth day and then up to the ninetieth day of implantation, remaining constant up to the end of the study onwards, and increased in number up to the ninetieth day after implantation and then remained constant. The number of nuclei in these cells increased from the seventh day of implantation up to the ninetieth day and then up to the end of the study.
