Cell cycle of the enamel knot during tooth morphogenesis.
Article in Histochemistry and cell biology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Enamel knot (EK) is known to be a central organ in tooth development, especially for cusp patterning. To trace the exact position and movement among the inner dental epithelium (IDE) and EK cells, and to monitor the relationship between the EK and cusp patterning, it is essential that we understand the cell cycle status of the EK in early stages of tooth development. In this study, thymidine analogous (IdU, BrdU) staining was used to evaluate the cell cycle phase of the primary EK at the early casp stage (E13.0) and the gerbil embryo (E19) in a developing mouse embryo. The centerpiece of this study was to describe the cell cycle phasing and sequencing during proliferation in the IDE according to the expression of IdU and BrdU following their injection at calculated time points. The interval time between IdU injection and BrdU injection was set at 4 h. As a result, the cell cycle in the IDE of the mouse and gerbil was found to be synchronous. Conversely, the cell cycle in primary EKs of mice was much longer than that of the IDE. Therefore, the difference of cell cycle of the IDE and the EK is related to the diversity of cusp patterning and would provide a new insight into tooth morphogenesis.
