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

backgroundThe aim of the study is to detect apoptosis in granular cell ameloblastoma by annexin v affinity assay, a novel technique. MATERIALS &

methodsExcitional biopsy of two patients with granular cell ameloblastoma were fixed in buffered formalin and later embedded in paraffin wax. Blocks were sliced into 3m thick sections for routine histological and subsequent immunohistochemical examinations. For electron microscopic examination tissues were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde.electron microscopic examination was carried out to find the nature of granularity in granular cell ameloblastoma which was finally confirmed by annexin v technique.

resultsAnnexin v is a sensitive marker to detect early apoptosis. Fluorescence in granular cell clusters showed that apoptotic cell death is higher in granular cells. Both early and late events of apoptosis were identified in annexin v staining and electron microscopic study respectively.

conclusionOur study confirms that increased apoptotic cell death and subsequent phagocytosis is responsible for granular appearance of cells in granular cell ameloblastoma compared with that of conventional ameloblastoma.
