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

To investigate the structural anisotropy in bovine septal cartilage, quantitative procedures in microscopic magnetic resonance imaging (μMRI), polarized light microscopy (PLM), and mechanical indentation were used to measure the tissue in three orthogonal planes: vertical, medial, and caudocephalic. The quantitative T2 imaging experiments in μMRI found strong anisotropy in the images of both vertical and caudocephalic planes but little anisotropy in the images from the medial plane. The PLM birefringent experiments found that the retardation values in the medial section were only about 10% of these in the vertical and caudocephalic sections and that the angle values in all three sections followed the rotation of the tissue section in the microscope stage. The stress relaxation experiments in mechanical indentation showed reduced stiffness in the medial plane compared to stiffness in either the vertical or caudocephalic planes. Collectively, the results in this project coherently indicate a marked structural anisotropy in cartilage from the nasal septum, where the long axis of the collagen fibrils is oriented in parallel with the medial axis.
