Effects of digit tissue on cell death and ectopic cartilage formation in the interdigital zone in chick leg buds.

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
In developing chick leg buds, large-scale cell death occurs in the interdigital zone, which is responsible for the separation of digits from each other. Ectopic cartilage formation is known to occur upon removal of the chondrogenic digit tissue of the leg bud. To examine the mechanisms of ectopic cartilage formation in the interdigital cell death region, we performed the following operations on stage 28-29 leg buds: (i) removal of the digit-forming area; (ii) incision between the interdigital zone and digit region; (iii) insertion of an aluminum barrier into the interdigital zone; and (iv) insertion of a permeable Nuclepore filter into the interdigital zone. In all cases, the inhibition of cell death and/or the formation of ectopic cartilage in the interdigital zone were observed, although the frequency of the inhibition of cell death and the formation of ectopic cartilage varied, depending upon the position where the operations were performed. These results suggest that cell death and cell differentiation in the interdigital zone may be controlled by some factor(s) from digit cartilage.
