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

objectiveTo preliminarily investigate the effects of direct treatment with cold atmosphere plasma (CAP) on the migration and proliferation capabilities of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs), as well as the correlation between the doses and the effects.

methodsThe CAP Bio-Med Platform was used to generate the CAP in this study. The characteristics of the CAP source were kept constant by fixing the discharge voltage, frequency, and gas flow rate. Different CAP doses were generated by adjusting the discharge time (20 s, 60 s, 120 s, 180 s) and used to treat HGFs. The temperature, pH, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in the HGFs culture medium were measured following treatment with different CAP doses. The morphology of the HGFs after treatment was observed

resultsAs the treatment duration increased, the CAP dose generated by the platform ranged from 0 J to 210.6 J. Different CAP doses did not affect the temperature of the HGFs culture medium. As the CAP dose increased, the pH of the HGFs culture medium first decreased from an initial 8.18±0.06 to 8.13±0.20, then gradually increased to 8.63±0.15 (

conclusionTreatment with different doses of CAP alters the pH and ROS levels of the HGFs culture medium. CAP treatment has a dose-dependent effect on the biological behavior of HGFs: Low-dose treatment enhances migration and proliferation, while excessively high-dose treatment inhibits these abilities.
