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

Periodontitis is a bacterially-induced inflammatory disease that leads to tooth loss. It results from the damaging effects of a dysregulated immune response, mediated largely by neutrophils, macrophages, T cells and B cells, on the tooth-supporting tissues including the alveolar bone. Specifically, infiltrating B cells at inflamed gingival sites with an ability to secrete RANKL and inflammatory cytokines are thought to play roles in alveolar bone resorption. However, the direct contribution of B cells in alveolar bone resorption has not been fully appreciated. In this study we sought to define the contribution of RANKL expressing B cells in periodontitis by employing a mouse model of pathogen-induced periodontitis that used conditional knockout mice with B cell-targeted RANKL deletion. Briefly, alveolar bone loss was assessed in the wild-type, B-cell deficient (Jh), or B-cell-RANKL deleted (RANKL
