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

Genetic and pharmacological studies demonstrate that Endothelin1 (Edn1) is a key signaling molecule for patterning the facial skeleton in fish, chicks, and mice. When Edn1 function is reduced early in development the ventral lower jaw and supporting structures are reduced in size and often fused to their dorsal upper jaw counterparts. We show that schmerle (she) encodes a zebrafish ortholog of Phospholipase C, beta 3 (Plcbeta3) required in cranial neural crest cells for Edn1 regulation of pharyngeal arch patterning. Sequencing and co-segregation demonstrates that two independent she (plcbeta3) alleles have missense mutations in conserved residues within the catalytic domains of Plcbeta3. Homozygous plcbeta3 mutants are phenotypically similar to edn1 mutants and exhibit a strong arch expression defect in Edn1-dependent Distalless (Dlx) genes as well as expression defects in several Edn1-dependent intermediate and ventral arch domain transcription factors. plcbeta3 also genetically interacts with edn1, supporting a model in which Edn1 signals through a G protein-coupled receptor to activate Plcbeta3. Mild skeletal defects occur in plcbeta3 heterozygotes, showing the plcbeta3 mutations are partially dominant. Through a morpholino-mediated deletion in the N-terminal PH domain of Plcbeta3, we observe a partial rescue of facial skeletal defects in homozygous plcbeta3 mutants, supporting a hypothesis that an intact PH domain is necessary for the partial dominance we observe. In addition, through mosaic analyses, we show that wild-type neural crest cells can efficiently rescue facial skeletal defects in homozygous plcbeta3 mutants, demonstrating that Plcbeta3 function is required in neural crest cells and not other cell types to pattern the facial skeleton.
