Mathematical analysis for spatial distribution of vessels, mast cells and adipocytes in superficial fascia.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
As a novel origin of adipocytes, the superficial fascia, a typical soft connective tissue, has abundant adipocytes and preadipocytes, accompanied by numerous mast cells. Blood vessels pass through the fascia to form a network structure. The more reasonable statistical analysis methods can provide a new method for in-depth study of soft connective tissue by clarifying the spatial distribution relation between cells (point structure) and blood vessels (linear structure). This study adopted the Guidolin et al. statistical analysis methods used by epidemiology and ecology to quantitatively analyze the distribution pattern and correlations among blood vessels, adipocytes, and mast cells. Image-processing software and self-written computer programs were used to analyze images of whole-mounted fascia, and the relevant data were measured automatically. Voronoi's analysis revealed that the vascular network was non-uniformly distributed. In fascia with average area of 3.75 cm
