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

Although laminin 332 (laminin 5), an extracellular matrix molecule involved in cell adhesion and migration, has been localized at the interface between the tooth enamel and junctional epithelium, its ultrastructural localization remains to be fully clarified. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the ultrastructural distribution of laminin 332 at the dento-gingival interface in Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata) using pre- and post-embedding immunoelectron microscopy. Pre-embedding immunoelectron microscopy revealed a broad band of internal basal lamina together with supplementary lamina densa, and both showed immunolabeling for laminin 332. Immunoreaction products for laminin 332 were observed in the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum of the junctional epithelial cells close to the tooth enamel. Post-embedding immunoelectron microscopy revealed an increase in the number of immunogold particles toward the coronal portion, resulting in a large accumulation of particles on the basal lamina, preferentially on the lamina densa. Concomitantly the dental cuticle at the dento-gingival interface was sporadically, but specifically, immunogold-labeled with anti-laminin 332 antibody. These data suggest that junctional epithelium actively produces laminin 332, and that the products accumulate at the dento-gingival interface during cell migration coronally towards the gingival sulcus.
