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

objectivesPeriodontitis is an inflammatory bone loss disease initiated by oral bacterial inflammation. Herein, we determined whether inhibition of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2 (S1PR2, a G protein-coupled receptor) by its specific antagonist, JTE013, could alleviate ligature-induced periodontitis in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsC57BL/6 mice were placed with silk ligatures at the left maxillary second molar to induce experimental periodontitis. Mice were treated with JTE013 or control vehicle (dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO) oral topically on the ligatures once daily. After 15 days of treatment, RNA was extracted from the lingual mucosal tissues to quantify IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF mRNA levels in the tissues. Alveolar bone loss was determined by micro-computed tomography. Sagittal periodontal tissue sections were cut and stained by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) for general histology, or stained by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) for osteoclasts.

resultsTreatment with JTE013 attenuated ligature-induced alveolar bone loss compared with DMSO treatment. Treatment with JTE013 reduced IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF mRNA levels in murine gingival mucosal tissues, inhibited leukocyte infiltration in the periodontal tissues, and decreased the number of osteoclasts in the periodontal tissues compared with controls.

conclusionOral topical administration of JTE013 alleviated periodontal inflammatory bone loss induced by ligature placement in mice.
