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

The rate of orthodontic tooth movement slows with age, likely due to changes in alveolar bone remodeling. However, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Osteocytes (OCys), which form the lacunar-canalicular network (LCN), play a key role in bone metabolism; however, the effects of aging on the alveolar LCN are still unclear. This study aimed to clarify age-related alterations in the LCN of alveolar bone and their underlying mechanisms. The LCN was visualized using Ploton silver staining, revealing a significant reduction in 16-mo-old C57BL/6J mice compared to 2-mo-old mice. The number of OCys, as well as the number and length of canaliculi per OCy, decreased significantly with age. These reductions were consistent in both sexes. Periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) from aged mice showed increased expression of the senescence marker p16
