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

In this study, we extend on the three parameter analysis approach of utilizing a noninvasive dual-liquid-crystal-based polarization-resolved second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy to facilitate the quantitative characterization of collagen types I and II in fracture healing tissues. The SHG images under various linear and circular polarization states are analyzed and quantified in terms of the peptide pitch angle (PA), SHG-circular dichroism (CD), and anisotropy parameter (AP). The results show that the collagen PA has a value of 49.26° after 2 weeks of fracture healing (collagen type II domination) and 49.05° after 4 weeks (collagen type I domination). Moreover, the SHG-CD and AP values of the different collagen types differ by 0.05. The change tendencies of the extracted PA, SHG-CD, and AP parameters over the healing time are consistent with the collagen properties of healthy nonfractured bone. Thus, the feasibility of the proposed dual-liquid-crystal-based polarization-SHG method for differentiating between collagen types I and II in bone fracture healing tissue is confirmed.
