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

The intervertebral disc (IVD) is a complex structure, and recent evidence suggests that separations or delamination between layers of the annulus may contribute to degeneration development, a common cause of low back pain The purpose of the present experiment was to quantify the mechanical response of the layer-adjoining interlamellar matrix at different rates of separation. Understanding the rate-dependency of the interlamellar matrix, or the adhesion between adjacent layers of the disc, is important as the spine experiences various loading velocities during activities of daily living. Twelve discs were dissected from four bovine tails (three extracts per tail). Two multi-layered annulus samples were collected from each IVD (total = 24, mean bond width = 3.82 ± 0.96 mm) and randomly assigned to a 180° peel test at one of three delamination rates; 0.05 mm/s, 0.5 mm/s, or 5 mm/s. Annulus extracts were found to have similar maximal adhesion strengths (
