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

To elucidate the pharmacological effects of Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase inhibitors (ROCK-is), ripasudil (Rip), Y27632, and KD025, on human orbital fatty tissue, the human orbital fibroblasts (HOFs) were three-dimensional (3D) cultured for 12 days. The effects of ROCK-is on the physical properties of the 3D-cultured HOF spheroids, including their sizes and physical stiffness, their adipogenesis by lipid staining, and the mRNA expression of adipogenesis-related genes,
