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

To study the role of keratin filaments in Xenopus development, fertilized eggs were injected with anti-keratin monoclonal antibodies. The anti-keratin monoclonal antibodies AE1 and AE3 induce abnormal gastrulation; in the most severely affected embryos gastrulation fails completely. In contrast, embryos injected with the anti-keratin antibody 1h5 develop normally. Immunocytochemical data indicate that injected 1h5 binds to the dense superficial keratin filament system of the embryo but not to the deeper keratin filament networks of ectodermal and subectodermal cells. Injected AE1 and AE3 do not bind to the superficial keratin system but appear to interact preferentially with the deep keratin filament systems of the embryo. We conclude that the superficial keratin filament system is not involved in the process of gastrulation per se but may protect the embryo from mechanical damage. On the other hand, our results suggest that the integrity of the deeper keratin filament systems is required for the mechanical integration of the morphogenetic movements that underlie gastrulation in Xenopus.
