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

Sudachitin, which is a polymethoxy flavonoid derived from the peer of Citrus sudachi, has several biological properties. However, the effect of sudachitin on human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether sudachitin could decrease the expression of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and prostaglandin in HDPCs stimulated with Pam3CSK4, a ligand for toll-like receptor (TLR) 2. HDPCs were pre-incubated with different concentrations of sudachitin (6.25, 12.5, 25, or 50 μM) and stimulated with Pam3CSK4 (100 ng/mL). The quantification of inflammatory cytokines (interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL) 10) and prostaglandin E
