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

Orthodontic tooth movement progresses by a combination of periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue and alveolar bone remodeling processes. Besides the remodeling of alveolar bone around the moving teeth, the major extracellular matrix (ECM) components of PDLs, collagens, are degenerated, degraded, and restructured. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their specific inhibitors, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), act in a co-ordinated fashion to regulate the remodeling of periodontal tissues. We hypothesized that the expression levels of the genes for MMP-2, MMP-9, and TIMPs 1-3 are increased transiently in the periodontal tissue during orthodontic tooth movement. To test this hypothesis, we employed an animal model of tooth movement using rats, as well as in situ hybridization to analyze the expression levels of Mmp-2, Mmp-9, and Timps 1-3. The expression levels of these genes increased transiently in cells of periodontal tissues, which include cementoblasts, fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts, at the compression side of the moving teeth. The transient increases in gene expression at the tension side were mainly limited to osteoblasts and cementoblasts. In conclusion, the expression levels of Mmp-2, Mmp-9, and Timps 1-3 increase transiently during orthodontic tooth movement at both the tension and compression sides. The expression of these genes is regulated differentially in the periodontal tissue of the tension side and compression side. This altered pattern of gene expression may determine the rate and extent of remodeling of the collagenous ECM in periodontal tissues during orthodontic tooth movement.
