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

aimCloning and analysing the up-regulated expression of transthyretin-related gene following short interval successive partial hepatectomy (SISPH) to elucidate the mechanism of differentiation, division, dedifferentiation and redifferentiation in rat liver regeneration (LR).

methodsLobus external sinister and lobus centralis sinister, lobus centralis, lobus dexter, lobus candatus were removed one by one from rat liver at four different time points 4, 36, 36 and 36 hr (total time: 4 hr, 40 hr, 76 hr, 112 hr) respectively. Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) was carried out by using normal rat liver tissue as driver and the tissue following short interval successive partial hepatectomy (SISPH) as tester to construct a highly efficient forward-subtractive cDNA library. After screening, an interested EST fragment was selected by SSH and primers were designed according to the sequence of the EST to clone the full-length cDNA fragment using RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA end). Homologous detection was performed between the full-lenth cDNA and Genbank.

resultsForward suppression subtractive hybridization (FSSH) library between 0 h and 112 h following SISPH was constructed and an up-regulated full-length cDNA (named LR1), which was related with the transthyretin gene, was cloned by rapid amplification of cDNA end. It was suggested that the gene is involved in the cellular dedifferentiation in LR following SISPH.

conclusionSome genes were up-regulated in 112 h following SISPH in rat. LR(1) is one of these up-regulated expression genes which may play an important role in rat LR.
