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 mouse mandible is a popular model system that continues to be the focus of studies in evo-devo and other fields. Yet, little attention has been given to the role of postnatal growth in producing the adult form. Using cleared and stained specimens, we describe the timing of tooth and jaw development and changes in jaw size and shape from postnatal day 1 (p1) through weaning to adulthood. We found that tooth development is relatively advanced at birth, and that the functional adult dentition is in place by p15 (just before the start of weaning). Shape analysis showed that the trajectory of mandible shape changes direction at least twice between birth and adulthood, at p7 and p15. At each stage there are changes in shape to all tooth- and muscle-bearing regions and, at each change of direction, all of these regions change their pattern of growth. The timing of the changes in direction in Mus suggests there are signals that redirect growth patterns independently of changes in function and loading associated with weaning and jaw muscle growth. A better understanding of these signals and how they produce a functionally integrated mandible may help explain the mechanisms guiding evolutionary trends and patterns of plasticity and may also provide valuable clues to therapeutic manipulation of growth to alleviate the consequences of trauma or disease.
