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

We evaluated the effect of multiple exposures to electronic cigarettes on human oral mucosa structure and proinflammatory cytokine secretion. A 3D air-liquid interface human gingival mucosa was produced and exposed 10 min twice a day for 2 and 4 days for a total of 4 or 8 exposure times to e-cigarette aerosol. The vaped e-liquid contained 18 mg/ml of nicotine. Results show that 4 and 8 exposures to the e-cigarettes with and without nicotine-induced structural tissue damage, decreased Laminin and type IV collagen production but increased the secretions of several metalloproteinases (MMPs), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The e-cigarette reduced the number of proliferative epithelial cells, as ascertained by the low number of Ki-67
