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

Introduction: Vitamin D is an essential steroid hormone that consists of two forms, namely vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), which can be obtained from exposure to sunlight, synthesis of vitamin D in the skin, food and dietary supplements. Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in several countries including Indonesia is still high, while the role of vitamin D is very important including accelerating the wound healing process, increasing the immune system, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial. Purpose: This case report aims to find out the role of vitamin D in the wound-healing process in the oral mucosa. Case Reports: Two men went to the Oral Disease Clinic with complaints of canker sores on the oral mucosa for more than a month accompanied by pain. Intra-oral condition in the first patient showed multiple ulcers with yellowish white base surrounded by erythematous areas, well-defined, irregular with a size of 1.5 × 1 cm and 1 × 0.5 cm on the right and left buccal mucosa, while intra-oral in the second patient, a single ulcer with a base was found yellowish colour surrounded by erythematous area, oval measuring 3x1 cm, clearly demarcated with induration. Results: Laboratory examination of vitamin D in both patients showed decreased levels of vitamin D with values of 28.7 and 9.8 ng/mL. Conclusion: Vitamin D supplementation has shown effectiveness in wound-healing processes in the oral mucosa.
