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 subcutaneous implantation of devitalized, mineral-containing bone particles in rats elicits the recruitment and differentiation of multinucleated cells and the rapid resorption of the bone. Cytochemical and ultrastructural characteristics were studied 12 days after implantation of bone. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity was demonstrated in these cells, especially at the cell/bone interface. Mast cells were seen vicinal to, but not in contact with the osteoclasts and the bone particles. Electron microscopic evaluation revealed that many multinucleated cells in lacunae on the surfaces of the bone particles displayed features characteristic of in osso osteoclasts, including clear zones of attachment to the bone substrate, and ruffled borders overlying bone with frayed collagen fibers. Many cells contained multiple giant centrospheres; this finding suggests that fusion can occur between multinucleated cells. This model may be useful to characterize the differentiation and regulation of bone-resorbing cells.
