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

Grainyhead/CP2 transcription factor family members are widely conserved among the animal kingdom and have been implicated in different developmental processes. Thus far, nothing has been known about their roles in zebrafish. Here we identify seven zebrafish grainyhead-like (grhl) / cp2 genes, with focus on grhl1, which is expressed in the periderm and in epidermal ionocyte progenitors, but downregulated when ionocytes differentiate. In addition, expression was detected in other "non-keratinocyte" cell types of the epidermis, such as pvalb8-expressing cells, which according to our lineage tracing experiments are derived from the same pool of progenitor cells like keratinocytes and ionocytes. Antisense morpholino oligonucleotide-based loss-of-function analysis revealed that grhl1 is dispensable for the development and function of all investigated epidermal cell types, but required as a negative regulator of its own transcription during ionocyte differentiation. Knockdown of the transcription factor Foxi3a, which is expressed in a subset of the grhl1 population, caused a loss of ionocytes and a corresponding increase in the number of pvalb8-expressing cells, while leaving the number of grhl1-positive cells unaltered. We propose that grhl1 is a novel common marker of all or most "non-keratinocyte" epidermal progenitors, and that the sub-functionalisation of these cells is regulated by differential positive and negative effects of Foxi3 factors.
