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

The activities of glucosaminidase, galactosaminidase, and glucuronidase were determined in fractions of bovine growth plate cartilage. Glucosaminidase and galactosaminidase activities were lowest in the area corresponding to the reserve cartilage and increased from the upper to the lower portions of the hypertrophic zones of the growth plate, reaching a maximum in the calcifying cartilage. Glucuronidase activity showed a distinct spike of activity in the calcifying cartilage. The spatial distribution of these activities suggests a role in calcification and in the dissolution of the extracellular matrix at the chondro-osseous junction of the growth plate.
