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

Transgenes, composed of elements of the 5' nontranscribed region of the liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) gene linked to various reporters, have previously been used to explore the cellular, regional, and temporal differentiation of the mouse intestinal epithelium. In this report, we have analyzed a pedigree of L-FABP/human growth hormone (hGH) transgenic mice that display a stable, heritable, mosaic pattern of reporter expression: wholly hGH-positive or hGH-negative populations of differentiating enterocytes arise from hGH-positive or hGH-negative crypts, respectively, and migrate as vertical coherent bands up the villus producing striped (polyclonal) villi. The ability of enteroendocrine cells within a given villus stripe to support hGH expression coincides with the enterocytic reporter phenotype, suggesting that these two terminally differentiated cells arise from a common multipotent stem cell. hGH-negative crypts are nonrandomly distributed around each villus and their frequency increases along the duodenal-to-ileal axis. Statistical analysis of the observed villus striping pattern suggests that transgene expression is not independently determined in individual crypts but rather in multicrypt "patches." The intact endogenous mouse L-FABP gene (Fabpl) exhibits a similar striped villus pattern of expression in a portion of the distal small intestine. These studies indicate that Fabpl and L-FABP/hGH transgenes represent sensitive markers for exploring the biological properties of gut stem cells and how positional information is encoded in this rapidly and continuously renewing epithelium.
