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

Calcineurin inhibitors are drugs used to suppress the immune system by blocking the nuclear localization of the NFAT transcription factor. Systemic use of these drugs is essential to organ transplantation, but comes at the cost of elevated rates of skin cancer. They have been used topically in atopic dermatitis and other skin diseases on the assumption that they avoid the cancer risk by localized use. The results here show that in skin cells and artificial models of human skin, calcineurin inhibitors block UV-induced nuclear localization of NFAT, and significantly reduce repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers induced in DNA. In addition they inhibit apoptosis of UV-irradiated cells. The effect of blocking nuclear localization of NFAT and inhibiting DNA repair should be considered in judging the risk of topical use of calcineurin inhibitors.
