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 longevity of adult stem cells, and their potential for vast tissue regeneration, makes them a focal point of current research and debate, with future aspirations for the use of stem cells in the treatment of a number of human pathological conditions. Due to the rapid rate of cell turnover in the gastrointestinal tract, the stem cells of this tissue are amongst the most assiduous in the body, although they remain unidentified to this day due to their immature, undifferentiated phenotype. However, our knowledge of the mechanisms regulating gastrointestinal stem cell function is evolving, with the identification of putative cellular markers and the elucidation of signalling pathways which regulate cell behaviour in the normal and neoplastic gastrointestinal tract. This review describes the fundamental properties of the gastrointestinal stem cell including: (i) their number, location and origins, (ii) their primary function of deriving gastrointestinal cell lineages and maintaining tissue homeostasis, (iii) the acquisition of gastrointestinal cell lineages from adult stem cells of extraneous tissues and the consequences of this in a therapeutic context, and (iv) the genetic and morphological phenomena surrounding neoplastic transformation in the gastrointestinal tract.
