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

BACK GROUND AND

aimproduction of collagen by fibroblast cells is a key component in wound healing. Several studies have shown that low level laser therapy (LLLT) and propolis extract stimulate collagen Type I production. The aim of this study is to evaluation the combined effect of LLL helium neon (632.8 nm) and Iranian propolis extract on collagen Type I gene expression by human gingival fibroblasts (HGF3-PI 53). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Human gingival fibroblasts after culturing divided into six experimental groups: G1-control group, which received no irradiation and propolis extract, G2-irradiated at1.5 J/cm

resultsThe obtained results illustrated a statistically significant difference between G3 (0.15 J/cm

conclusionLLLT in different dosage and propolis extract may result in decreased or increased collagen type I gene expression. However this effect should be investigated in clinical studies.
