Three-dimensional observation of the mouse embryo by micro-computed tomography: Meckel's cartilage, otocyst, and/or muscle of tongue.
Article in Odontology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Three-dimensional observation during embryogenesis is possible with micro-computed tomography, but there are no observations of organ size. In this paper, three examples of three-dimensional observation of organs by micro-CT are tried. At 13.0 days post-coitum, mouse embryos were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 h and stained enbloc by osmium tetroxide overnight. The embryos were then embedded in paraffin using standard methods for 24 h. Specimens were analyzed by micro-computed tomography and image processing was performed. The entire Meckel's cartilage and its relation in the mandible, as well as the complex structure of the otocyst, are easily visualized. Although it is difficult to extract detailed structures of the tongue muscles, it is possible to identify the inner and external tongue muscles. Relation among the organs and other are easily visualized. Three-dimensional observation by micro-computed tomography is an important technology for visualization of embryogenesis and could be used in organ culture.
