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 low-level laser irradiation at certain wavelengths is reported to facilitate the healing process of diabetic wounds. Thus, this study carried out to look for the suitable laser parameters that could speed up the healing process. Fourteen healthy male and female rats were used in which a circular wound with a diameter of 2.5 ± 0.2 cm was created on the dorsum in each rat after injected them with alloxan to induced diabetic. They have been divided into two groups: control group (N = 7) and study group (N = 7) to conduct the study. He-Ne laser with a wavelength of 632.8 nm at power density of 4.0 mW/cm
