Complementing the pulp proteome via sampling with a picosecond infrared laser (PIRL).
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
objectivesThe aim of this investigation was the detailed analysis of the human pulp proteome using the new picosecond infrared laser (PIRL)-based sampling technique, which is based on a completely different mechanism compared to mechanical sampling. Proteome analysis of healthy pulp can provide data to define changes in the proteome associated with dental disease. MATERIAL AND
methodsImmediately after extraction of the entire, undamaged tooth, 15 wisdom teeth were deep frozen in liquid nitrogen and preserved at -80°C. Teeth were crushed, and the excised frozen pulps were conditioned for further analysis. The pulps were sampled using PIRL, and the aspirates digested with trypsin and analyzed with mass spectrometry. Pulp proteins were categorized according to their gene ontology terminus. Proteins identified exclusively in this study were searched in the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) for gaining information about the main known localization and function.
resultsA total of 1348 proteins were identified in this study. The comparison with prior studies showed a match of 72%. Twenty-eight percent of the proteins were identified exclusively in this study. Considering HPA, almost half of these proteins were assigned to tissues that could be pulp specific.
conclusionPIRL is releasing proteins from the dental pulp which are not dissolved by conventional sampling techniques. Clinical Relevance The presented data extend current knowledge on dental pulp proteomics in healthy teeth and can serve as a reference for studies on pulp proteomics in dental disease.
