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

introductionThis study aimed to compare the cytocompatibility and angiogenic potential of 2 antibiotics (clindamycin [CLIN] and minocycline [MINO]) at distinct concentrations on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

methodsDPSCs and HUVECs were exposed to cell culture media modified with CLIN or MINO at concentrations ranging from 30 μg/mL-1000 μg/mL. Cell toxicity and proliferation were investigated using the lactate dehydrogenase and tetrazolium reduction assays, respectively. A capillarylike tube formation in vitro assay was conducted to determine the angiogenic potential associated with each antibiotic. Additionally, selected morphometric angiogenesis parameters were determined using dedicated software (WimTube; Onimagin Technologies SCA, Córdoba, Spain). All statistical analyses were performed using 1-way analysis of variance and the Tukey post hoc test (α= .05).

resultsThe collected data showed that compared with the control (cell culture media, alpha-minimum essential medium Eagle) increasing the antibiotic concentration significantly decreased cell viability and proliferation of both DPSCs and HUVECs. In terms of angiogenic potential, when tested at 30 μg/mL and 50 μg/mL, CLIN significantly amplified tube formation when compared with MINO with angiogenesis parameters (ie, tube length and tube number) similar to the effect promoted by exogenous vascular endothelial growth factor (50 ng/mL).

conclusionsCLIN was less cytotoxic when compared with MINO at higher concentrations. Of note, CLIN did not hinder the proangiogenic activity induced by vascular endothelial growth factor to the same extent as MINO, suggesting that the replacement of MINO by CLIN might translate into positive implications in the overall regenerative outcome.
