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

backgroundDiabetes is a common disease that causes gingival and periodontal problems. Stem cells isolated from dental sources are an emerging area of research with a potential to facilitate regenerative medicine. The stem cells retain the property of self-renewal and the ones isolated from dental sources are mainly multipotent mesenchymal stem cells that have the ability to self-renew as well as differentiation towards multiple lineages.

objectivesWe aimed to isolate and characterize gingival mesenchymal stem cells by pluripotency markers and investigated the effect of oxidative stress on growth kinetics and apoptotic gene expression of gingival cells exposed to glucose mediated oxidative stress.

methodsIn this study, we isolated gingival mesenchymal stem cells from gingiva. This was followed by morphologic analysis using inverted phase contrast microscopy and molecular profiling of these cells for the mRNA expression of specific genes. The isolated cells were cultured till passage 3 and then exposed to oxidative stress (high glucose concentration). We measured the apoptotic gene expression and compared their growth kinetics.

resultsThe results showed that oxidative stress produced by glucose reduced growth kinetics and increased apoptotic gene expression in gingival mesenchymal stem cells. According to the genetic results, glucose activated TNF family to initiate apoptosis.

conclusionIn conclusion, the present study demonstrated that high glucose obliterated cellular proliferation testified by evaluating growth kinetics and induced apoptotic gene expression in gingival mesenchymal stem cells. This initiated extrinsic apoptotic pathway mediated by TNF family. Therefore, in diabetes oral health condition is compromised and periodontal disease is common.
