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

Neurotrophins (NT) belong to a family of structurally and functionally related proteins that, depending on the tissue context and the receptors involved, promote either neuronal cell survival and differentiation or cell death. NT, and in particular NGF, were first identified as neurotrophic factors supporting the synthesis and development of sensory neurons in the central and peripheral nervous system. It is now widely accepted that NT also act as growth factors in non-neuronal cells, including the skin. In the skin, most cell types are able to secrete and/or to respond to stimulation by NT, creating a unique network of molecular signaling in the cutaneous microenvironment. Moreover, many skin diseases have been associated with an involvement of a number of neural factors including NT, but less attention has been given to the role of NT as growth factors in the development of skin pathologies. This review summarizes currently data on the expression and function of NT and their receptors in several cell types in the skin. Moreover it focuses on the role of the skin NT network in two cutaneous conditions, melanoma and psoriasis where NT are clearly involved.
