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 process of mineralization in cells prepared either by neutral protease digestion (Pro I) or by collagenase digestion (fifth cycle, Col V) from fetal rat mandible was studied in vitro. Alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) activity of cells in Pro I was low on day 3, increased rapidly from day 8, and reached a maximum on day 16, whereas that in Col V was high on day 2, then declined and thereafter elevated to reach a maximum on day 13. Both cell populations synthesized type I collagen in cell matrix and medium. Type III collagen was observed in cell matrix of Pro I on day 14 and 21. There was alpha 2 band of type V collagen in cell matrix of Pro I on day 21. Calcium deposition could be detected from day 14 in Pro I and from day 19 in Col V. The von Kossa-positive nodules were found on day 17 in Pro I and day 21 in Col V, respectively. The extracellular matrix in Pro I electron-microscopically consisted of well-banded collagen fibrils with a large number of calcified spherules. An elevation of ALPase activity, collagen synthesis, and mineral deposition occurred sequentially with a time lapse in Col V, and almost simultaneously in Pro I. The number of mineralized nodules was correlated with the density of plated cells in Pro I, but not in Col V. Dexamethasone caused an increase in the number of mineralized nodules in Pro I, but not in Col V, suggesting that Pro I contained osteoprogenitor cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
