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

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is closely associated with aging; however, little is known about the age-related degeneration in the mandibular condylar cartilage (MCC) of the TMJ. Our objective was to examine whether a correlation exists between aging and degeneration of the MCC of the TMJ. Thirty-two male C57BL/6J wild-type mice were aged to 2, 12, 18, and 25 months old. The mice were euthanized by CO
