Effect of ascorbic acid on cellular respiration with mitochondrial reductase in gingival fibroblast.
Article in Bioinformation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Vitamin C or L-ascorbic acid has diverse functions in the body, especially healing promotion in tissue injury via participating in the hydroxylation reactions required for collagen formation. Systemic administration of vitamin C plays an important role on gingival fibroblast proliferation and functions. Whether local or rinsing administration of vitamin C alters gingival fibroblast wound healing behavior remains unclear. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the effect of vitamin C on gingival fibroblast behavior utilizing cell culture. Primary human gingival fibroblasts isolated from gingival tissue were rinsed with medium containing various concentrations of vitamin C. Cell migration, cell viability was assessed using MTT assay. The viability assay showed >95% live cells, and no significant (P > 0.05) difference in these values was observed at different concentrations at 24 hrs. The levels of cell proliferation were not significantly different among the control and experimental groups in 24 hrs experimental time-points (p > 0.05). Vitamin C is nontoxic and can be used for further experiments to validate for clinical application. This was further confirmed with morphological examination after 24hrs incubation on control and experimental group drugs observed under the phase contrast microscope.
