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

purposeTo determine changes in ABCG2-transport-dependent dye exclusion in outgrowths from limbal explants.

methodsHuman or rabbit limbal strips were deposited onto inserts. Over a month, the segments were twice transferred to new inserts. Fresh tissue (FT) cells, obtained by sequential dispase-trypsin digestion and the cells growing from the explant cultures, were characterized for ABCG2-dependent efflux by flow cytometry using a newly identified substratum, JC1. Rabbit cells were sorted into JC1-excluding (JC1(low)) and main (JC1(main)) cohorts and seeded with feeder 3T3 cells to determine colony formation efficiency (CFE).

resultsThe JC1(low) cells were all Hoechst 33342-excluding cells and vice versa, establishing the physical equivalence between JC1(low) and the side population (SP). JC1(low) cell content was reduced by three ABCG2-specific inhibitors: FTC, Ko143, and glafenine. JC1(low) percentiles for the fresh human and rabbit cells were 1.4% and 4.1% and CFEs for rabbit JC1(low) and JC1(main) were 1.2% and 5.3%. In contrast, the respective JC1(low) percentiles in the first and second outgrowths were 19.5% and 27.4% and 25.8% and 32.5%, and the rabbit JC1(low) and JC1(main) CFEs were 12.3% and 0.9%. Thus, although in FT the contribution of the JC1(low) cohort to the CFE is minimal, in the explant culture the phenotype incorporates >80% of the CFE.

conclusionsABCG2-dependent dye exclusion undergoes a large expansion in explant culture and becomes associated with a high CFE. The transport increase is more pronounced at late outgrowth times, suggesting permanence of stem cells within the explant.
