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

Increasing evidence indicates that nerves play a significant role in regulating stem cell homeostasis and developmental processes. To explore the impact of nerves on epithelial stem cell homeostasis during tooth development, the regulation of sensory nerves on stem cell homeostasis was investigated using a rat model of incisor development. Impaired mineralization, decreased enamel thickness, and fractured enamel rods of the incisor were observed after denervation. qPCR and histological staining revealed that the expression of enamel-related factors ameloblastin (AMBN), kallikrein-4, amelogenin (Amelx), collagen type XVII (col17a), and enamelin were decreased in the incisor enamel of rats with sensory nerve injure. The decreased expression of Wnt5a in ameloblasts was coupled with the downregulation of calcium ion-related calmodulin kinase II. These results implicate that the sensory nerves are essential in stem cell homeostasis for enamel mineralization and development.
