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

During early embryonic development, the retinoic acid signaling pathway coordinates with other signaling pathways to regulate body axis patterning and organogenesis. The production of retinoic acid requires two enzymatic reactions, the first of which is the oxidization of vitamin A (all-trans-retinol) to all-trans -retinal, mediated in part by the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase. Through DNA microarrays, we have identified a gene in Xenopus laevis which shares a high sequence similarity to human short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase member 3. We therefore annotated the gene Xenopus short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase 3 (dhrs3). Expression of dhrs3 was detected by whole mount in situ hybridization in the dorsal blastopore lip and axial mesoderm region in gastrula embryos. During neurulation, dhrs3 transcripts were found in the notochord and neural ectoderm. Strong expression of dhrs3 was mainly detected in the brain, spinal cord and pronephros region in tailbud and tadpole stages. Temporal expression tested by RT-PCR indicated that dhrs3 was activated at the onset of gastrulation, and remained highly expressed at later stages of embryonic development. The distinct and highly regulated spatial and temporal expression of dhrs3 highlights the complexity of retinoic acid regulation.
