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

Relaxin (RLN) is an insulin-like peptide hormone that enables softening and lengthening of the pubic symphysis and uterine cervix. Here, we analyzed the effects of RLN2 on the expansion of rat midpalatal suture (MPS) using a magnetically directed liposome-based drug delivery system. Thirty-six male rats were divided into three groups: control (MPS was not expanded), lipo (expanded for 1 week with vehicle liposomes encapsulating ferric oxide and Cy5.5), and RLN-lipo (expanded for 1 week with the liposomes coated with RLN2). Rats were sacrificed after 1 week of expansion or after 2 weeks of retention. To accumulate RLN2-liposomes, a magnetic sheet was fixed to the palatal mucosa of the MPS.
