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 development of a periostin-rich microenvironment in areas associated with insult, orchestrating pathways of repair and rebuilding, is documented. Literature lacks information regarding the presence of periostin in the context of rotator cuff tear (RCT). 55 consecutive patients with RCT were enrolled. Immunohistochemical periostin detection was performed on tissue samples excised from tear margins. Our study documented the presence of periostin in the margins of RCT. It is plausible that, when a tear occurs, multiple stimuli, both mechanical and inflammatory, lead to the development of a periostin-rich microenvironment as an attempt to tendon healing.
