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 transcriptional regulatory network governing the establishment of retinal neuron diversity is not well delineated. We report experimental results suggesting proneural gene neurogenin3 (ngn3) participating in this regulatory network. Retinal expression of chick ngn3 was confined to early neurogenesis. Overexpression of ngn3 in chick retina reduced cell proliferation and expanded the population of ganglion cells into the territory normally occupied by amacrine cells. Ngn3 overexpression altered the expression of a number of regulatory genes, including ash1, ath3, ath5, chx10, neuroD, ngn1, ngn2, and NSCL1. Early gene ngn1 was induced, but ash1, ngn2, ath3, and chx10, whose expressions persist through later phases of neurogenesis, were down-regulated. Expression of ath5 was up-regulated at the locale corresponding to young ganglion cells, but was down-regulated at the locale corresponding to progenitor cells. These results suggest that ngn3 regulates retinal neurogenesis by inducing regulatory genes for early-born neurons and repressing those for later-born cells.
