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

β-Catenin plays a crucial role in embryonic development and responds to the activation of several signal transduction pathways. In this paper, in order to understand the functions of β-catenin gene in early embryonic development of Artemia sinica, the complete cDNA sequence was cloned for the first time using RACE technology, then the sequence was analyzed by some bioinformatic methods. The expression of the β-catenin gene was investigated at various stages during the embryonic development using quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry assay. Through the investigation, the result of real-time PCR illustrated that β-catenin gene might relate to the response of A. sinica's immune system and osmotic pressure system in early embryonic developmental stage. Meanwhile, Immunohistochemistry assay demonstrated that during embryonic development, β-catenin was mainly expressed in the cephalothorax. Besides, we discovered that β-catenin might not be a maternal gene in A. sinica, and this new phenomenon may explain a constitutive and regional expression during the early embryonic development of A. sinica.
