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
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 used in combination with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) on the healing of experimental periodontal defects. Periodontal defects created in rats were treated by FGF-2, DBBM, FGF-2 + DBBM, or left unfilled. Microcomputed tomography, histological, and immunohistochemical examinations were used to evaluate healing. In vitro cell viability/proliferation on DBBM with/without FGF-2 was assessed by WST-1. Cell behavior was analyzed using scanning electron and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by staining with alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red. Bone volume fraction was significantly greater in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups than in other groups at 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively. In histological assessment, newly formed bone in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups appeared to be greater than other groups. Significantly greater levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-, vascular endothelial growth factor-, and osterix-positive cells were observed in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups compared to Unfilled group. In vitro, addition of FGF-2 to DBBM promoted cell viability/proliferation, attachment/spreading, and osteogenic differentiation. The combination therapy using FGF-2 and DBBM was similarly effective as FGF-2 alone in the healing of experimental periodontal defects. In certain bone defect configurations, the combined use of FGF-2 and DBBM may enhance healing via promotion of cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and osteogenic differentiation.
