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

objectivesThe objective of this study was to examine a new blue light diode laser system (445 nm) for dental soft tissue surgery on cellular level. MATERIALS AND

methodsAn in vitro cell culture model was established to evaluate the effects of the 445-nm diode laser in comparison to an established infrared diode laser (IR). Monolayer cell cultures were irradiated and wound healing was morphometrically measured. Fluorescence staining was used for proof of potential DNA double-strand breaks as well as cytoskeleton alterations. Cellular live/dead discrimination was performed and temperature development during laser irradiation was measured with a thermographic infrared camera.

resultsA characteristic zone formation was detected after irradiation with both wavelengths. Despite a larger wound area after irradiation with 445 nm, due to its higher temperature development, this laser system showed a faster wound healing in comparison to the IR laser. No increase of devitalized cells was documented with higher distances between laser tip and cell layer and thus without thermal interaction. Neither cytoskeleton alteration nor DNA double-strand breaks could be recorded after irradiation in non-contact mode.

conclusionsThe blue diode laser system demonstrated an excellent direct thermal coupling to cells and tissues without side effects even by reduced power settings. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The blue diode laser seems to be a promising technology for clinical application due to high absorption of blue light without major side effects in adjacent tissues even by reduced power settings.
