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

Little is known about the vomeronasal organ (VNO), which is associated with social behaviors through pheromone detection in mammals, particularly ungulates. We investigated the distribution of phospholipase C beta 2 (PLCβ2), a marker of solitary chemosensory cells (SCCs), in the VNO of the Korean roe deer (Capreolus pygargus). PLCβ2-positive cells were detected in both the sensory and non-sensory epithelium of the VNO, and resembled the bipolar cells. PLCβ2-positive cells colocalized with choline acetyltransferase, and Lens culinaris agglutinin. Furthermore, PLCβ2-positive cells were surrounded with trigeminal nerve fibers with calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-positive immunoreaction. The results indicate that the VNO of the Korean roe deer exhibits a distinct distribution of SCCs, which may be involved in detecting risk factors such as harmful substances.
