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

Transmission of strain across the tendon-bone interface otherwise known as the enthesis, is crucial to the movement of the skeleton. Imaging the inner structure and understanding the way that strain is transmitted across this interface is crucial to understanding the way it responds to load, how it becomes injured through trauma and how intervention and materials can be used to repair the enthesis after injury. Micro-CT imaging and digital volume correlation (DVC) have been widely used for musculoskeletal biomechanics analysis. However, there are limitations for soft tissue visualization. Contrast agents (CA) are used to address this, but understanding their potential effects is essential to ensure accurate and reliable characterization of musculoskeletal tissues biomechanics. In this research, four different contrast-enhanced staining solutions (CESS) including Iodine (I
