[Tenocytes and the extracellular matrix : a reciprocal relationship].
Article in Der Orthopade, 2009. 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
The characteristic cells in tendons and ligaments are called tenocytes, which are responsible for the formation and turnover of the extracellular matrix. They react to external stimuli and facilitate the functional adaptation of the proteoglycan and collagen network to mechanical requirements. Via numerous cellular processes they form a complex communicating network which demonstrates coordinated directional reactions. As is common to all tissues in the human body, tendons are subject to age changes which influence the tenocytes, but additionally the structural organization and hence the function of the extracellular matrix. The function and organization of tendons are also affected by mechanical forces, as well as by various cytokines produced in the tissue and by the application of anti-inflammatory medication.
