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 localization of alpha-D-galactose, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine sugar residues of glycoconjugates in the vomeronasal organ, olfactory mucosa, and septal organ in the nasal mucosae of rats was investigated using lectinohistochemical techniques combined with bright-field, epifluorescence, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Glycoconjugates in the mucomicrovillar complex of the vomeronasal organ contained all the sugar residues investigated, whereas glycoconjugates in the mucociliary complex of the olfactory mucosa and septal organ contained only N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. Vomeronasal receptor neurons expressed glycoconjugates with terminal alpha-D-galactose and beta-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues, whereas olfactory and septal receptor neurons expressed glycoconjugates with only N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues. Secretory granules of glands of the vomeronasal organ contained glycoconjugates with terminal alpha-D-galactose and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, whereas those of the Bowman's glands and glands of septal organ contained glycoconjugates with only internal N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues. The results demonstrate that the glycoconjugates expressed by vomeronasal receptor neurons and glands contain terminal alpha-D-galactose and beta-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine sugar residues that are not expressed by analogous cells in the olfactory mucosa and septal organ.
