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 monoclonal anti-cytokeratin 1/10 (LH1) antibody recognizing K1/K10 keratin epitopes that characterizes a keratinized epidermis of mammals cross-reacts with the beta and Oberhäutchen layers covering the scales and gastrosteges of grass snake embryos during the final period of epidermis differentiation. The immunolocalization of the anti-cytokeratin 1/10 (LH1) antibody appears in the beta layer of the epidermis, covering the outer surface of the gastrosteges at the beginning of developmental stage XI, and in the beta layer of the epidermis, covering the outer surface of the scales at the end of developmental stage XI. This antibody cross-reacts with the Oberhäutchen layers in the epidermis covering the outer surface of both scales and gastrosteges at developmental stages XI and XII just before its fusion with the beta layers. After fusion of the Oberhäutchen and beta layers, LH1 immunolabeling is weaker than before. This might suggest that alpha-keratins in these layers of the epidermis are masked by beta-keratins, modified, or degraded. The anti-cytokeratin 1/10 (LH1) antibody stains the Oberhäutchen layer in the epidermis covering the inner surface of the gastrosteges and the hinge regions between gastrosteges at the end of developmental stage XI. However, the Oberhäutchen of the epidermis covering the inner surfaces of the scales and the hinge regions between scales does not show cytokeratin 1/10 (LH1) immunolabeling until hatching. This cross-reactivity suggests that the beta and Oberhäutchen layers probably contain some alpha-keratins that react with the LH1 antibody. It is possible that these alpha-keratins create specific scaffolding for the latest beta-keratin deposition. It is also possible that the LH1 antibody cross-reacts with other epidermal proteins such as filament-associated proteins, i.e., filaggrin-like. The anti-cytokeratin 1/10 (LH1) antibody does not stain the alpha and mesos layers until hatching. We suppose that the differentiation of these layers will begin just after the first postnatal sloughing.
