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

Activin is a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) family, which plays a crucial role in skin morphogenesis and wound healing. To gain insight into the underlying mechanisms of action, we searched for activin-regulated genes in cultured keratinocytes. One of the identified target genes encodes Id1, a negative regulator of helix-loop-helix transcription factors. We show that Id1, Id2, and Id3 are strongly downregulated by activin in keratinocytes in vitro and in vivo. To determine the role of Id1 in keratinocyte biology, we generated stable HaCaT keratinocyte cell lines overexpressing this protein. Our results revealed that enhanced levels of Id1 do not affect proliferation of keratinocytes in monoculture under exponential culture conditions or in response to activin or TGF-beta1. However, in three-dimensional organotypic cultures, Id1-overexpressing HaCaT cells formed a hyperthickened and disorganized epithelium that was characterized by enhanced keratinocyte proliferation, abnormal differentiation, and an increased rate of apoptosis. These results identify an important function of Id1 in the regulation of epidermal homeostasis.
