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

Axons and dendrites of developing neurons establish distributed innervation patterns enabling precise discrimination in sensory systems. We describe the role of the extracellular matrix molecule, laminin beta2, interacting with the Ca(V)2.2 calcium channel in establishing appropriate sensory innervation. In vivo, Ca(V)2.2 is expressed on the growth cones of Xenopus laevis sensory neurites and laminin beta2 is expressed in the skin. Culturing neurons on a laminin beta2 substrate inhibits neurite outgrowth in a specific and calcium-dependent manner. Blocking signaling between laminin beta2 and Ca(V)2.2 leads to increased numbers of sensory terminals in vivo. These findings suggest that interactions between extracellular matrix molecules and calcium channels regulate connectivity in the developing nervous system.
