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 expression of cytokeratin polypeptides in the different epithelia of the developing inner ear of the rat from 12 days post conception to 20 days after birth was analysed immunohistochemically, using a panel of monoclonal antibodies. Throughout the development of the complex epithelial lining of the inner ear originating from the otocyst epithelium, only cytokeratins which are typical of simple epithelia were expressed. Cytokeratins 8, 18, and 19 were detectable shortly after the formation of the otocyst from the ectoderm (12 dpc), whereas cytokeratin 7 expression was delayed and first appeared in the vestibular portion and subsequently in the developing cochlear duct. During the development of the different types of specialized cells, differentiation-dependent modulation of the cytokeratin expression patterns was observed. In the mature inner ear, the specialized cell types displayed a function-related cytokeratin expression profile, both in the cochlear and vestibular portion. Cytokeratin expression in the flat epithelium of the vestibular portion suggests a more complex composition of this epithelium than has been established from routine morphology. Remarkably, the cochlear sensory cells were apparently devoid of cytokeratins, but no final conclusion could be drawn on the presence of cytokeratins in the sensory cells of the vestibular portion, because of the difficulty to delineate the cell borders between sensory cells and supporting cells.
