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

Developmental processes mediating the initiation of lineage commitment from self-renewing neural stem cells (NSCs) remain mostly unclear because of the persisting ambiguity in identifying true NSCs from proliferative lineage-restricted progenitors (LRPs), which are directly or indirectly derived from NSCs. Our multilineage immunohistochemical analyses of early embryonic rat telencephalon at the onset of neurogenesis revealed clear dorsoventral gradients in the emergence of two types of neuronal progenitors (NPs) from multilineage-negative NSCs. Enumeration of NSCs using comprehensive flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that their precipitous decline in vivo involved both active differentiation into NPs and an increased propensity toward apoptosis. Both processes paralleled the dorsoventral changes in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) expressions. NSCs residing in the dorsal telencephalon coexpressed FGFR1 and FGFR3, whereas those residing in the ventral telencephalon also expressed FGFR2. NSCs exposed to basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in vitro generated four stereotypical clonal expansion states: efficiently self-renewing, inefficiently self-renewing limited by apoptosis, exclusively neurogenic, and multipotential, generating up to five types of LRPs. The plasticity among these expansion states depended on ambient [bFGF], telencephalic developmental stage, and differential activation/inactivation of specific FGFRs. Coactivation of FGFR1 and FGFR3 promoted symmetrical divisions of NSCs (self-renewal), whereas inactivation of either triggered asymmetrical divisions and neurogenesis from these cells. Developmental upregulation of FGFR2 expression correlated with a shift of NSCs into a multipotential state or apoptosis. These results provide new insights regarding the roles of FGFRs in diversification of NSC properties and initiation of neural lineage-restricted differentiation.
