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

Successful in-frame rearrangement of immunoglobulin heavy chain genes or T cell antigen receptor (TCR) beta chain genes in lymphocyte progenitors results in formation of pre-BCR and pre-TCR complexes. These complexes signal progenitor cells to mature, expand in cell number, and suppress further rearrangements at the immunoglobulin heavy chain or TCRbeta chain loci, thereby ensuring allelic exclusion. We used transgenic expression of a constitutively active form of c-Raf-1 (Raf-CAAX) to demonstrate that activation of the Map kinase pathway can stimulate both maturation and expansion of B and T lymphocytes, even in the absence of pre-TCR or pre-BCR formation. However, the same Raf signal did not mediate allelic exclusion. We conclude that maturation of lymphocyte progenitors and allelic exclusion require distinct signals.
