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

Apoptosis and differentiation are tightly intertwined processes occurring at organ formation and remodelling during embryonic development. RAIDD (receptor-interacting protein [RIP]-associated ICH-1/CED-3-homologous protein with a death domain), a dual-domain adaptor protein has been shown to mediate the recruitment of CASPASE-2 to tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNF-R1) signalling complex through RIP kinase. However, Raidd overexpression studies suggest that apart from the established role in apoptosis, Raidd may have an additional function in cell differentiation. In this study, we could not generate Raidd null adult mice suggesting that lack of function of Raidd might be embryonic lethal. Thus, to elucidate the role of Raidd during mouse embryogenesis when the processes of organogenesis are most dynamic, we studied the Raidd expression pattern in midgestation mouse embryos. We generated Raidd+/- transgenic mice with a reporter transgene encoding the bacterial Beta-galactosidase (beta-gal) under the control of Raidd promoter. During the midgestation period (E8.5-E12.5), Raidd is expressed in developing organs derived from the ectoderm such as lens, structures of the inner ear and the fourth brain ventricle in regions where differentiation takes place implicating Raidd role in this process. In addition, Raidd expression was found in developing mesenchyme organs like heart and kidney and in the endothelial lining of the midgut at the time when profound morphological changes take place in these organs. In developing heart and kidney Raidd expression patterns overlapped with known zones of cell death suggesting Raidd may be involved in apoptosis-mediated remodelling. The observed lethality of mice targeted at both Raidd alleles and Raidd expression patterns during midgestation period strongly suggest that Raidd plays an important role in mammalian development.
