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 dermis and the epidermis of normal human skin are functionally separated by a basement membrane but, together, form a stable structural continuum. Anchoring fibrils reinforce this connection by insertion into the basement membrane and by intercalation with banded collagen fibrils of the papillary dermis. Structural abnormalities in collagen VII, the major molecular constituent of anchoring fibrils, lead to a congenital skin fragility condition, dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, associated with skin blistering. Here, we characterized the molecular basis of the interactions between anchoring fibrils and banded collagen fibrils. Suprastructural fragments of the dermo-epidermal junction zone were generated by mechanical disruption and by separation with magnetic Immunobeads. Anchoring fibrils were tightly attached to banded collagen fibrils. In vitro binding studies demonstrated that a von Willebrand factor A-like motif in collagen VII was essential for binding of anchoring fibrils to reconstituted collagen I fibrils. Since collagen I and VII molecules reportedly undergo only weak interactions, the attachment of anchoring fibrils to collagen fibrils depends on supramolecular organization of their constituents. This complex is stabilized in situ and resists dissociation by strong denaturants.
