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

Chronic periodontitis (CP) is one of the most prevalent local inflammatory disorders and is associated with various systemic diseases. However, the relationship between local CP pathogenesis and systemic metabolic responses is not fully elucidated. In this study, we show that CP causes systemic inflammation, leading to apoptotic resistance and senescent cell accumulation, which are crucial for maintaining local inflammation in a CP mouse model. Eliminating senescent cells through systemic senolytic therapy ameliorate local CP pathological changes. Proteomic analysis reveals that CP patient plasma extracellular vesicles show upregulation of immune response-related proteins and downregulation of metabolic and apoptosis-related proteins, among which pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) was significantly reduced. Moreover, CP mice show reduced circulating apoptotic vesicles (apoVs), particularly those carrying PKM2. Systemic administration of PKM2
