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

introductionA large number of basic and clinical studies have confirmed that fluoride produces toxic effects on multiple organ systems in the body including the nervous system. MATERIAL AND

methodsOne hundred twenty Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 30 in each group: a high fluoride group (drinking 200 mg/l fluoridated water, 24 weeks); a high fluoride control group (drinking distilled water, 24 weeks); a fluoride removal group (drinking fluoridated water, 12 W; then distilled water, 12 W) and a defluorination control group (drinking distilled water, 24 weeks).

resultsThe high fluoride and fluoride removal groups had spinal cord astrocyte edema. The apoptosis rate of spinal nerve cells in the high fluoride group and fluoride removal group were significantly higher (

conclusionsThe apoptosis of spinal cord nerve cells is obviously higher in rats with chronic fluoride exposure. Chronic fluoride exposure leads to high expression of MMP-9, and results in increased damage of the blood-spinal cord barrier. Increased p53 may be one of the factors causing damage. Short-term removal of fluoride has no obvious recovery in apoptosis of spinal cord nerve cells; highly expressed MMP-9 and p53 may be one of the reasons for unrecovered function.
