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

Gastric stem and progenitor cells (GPC) play key roles in the homeostatic renewal of gastric glands and are instrumental in epithelial repair after injury. Until very recently, the existence of GPC could only be inferred by indirect labeling strategies. The last few years have seen significant progress in the identification of biomarkers that allow prospective identification of GPC. The analysis of these unique cell populations is providing new insights into the molecular underpinnings of gastric epithelial homeostasis and repair. Of closely related interest is the potential to identify so-called cancer stem cells, a rare subpopulation of tumor-initiating cells. Here, we review the current useful biomarkers for GPC, including: (a) those that have been demonstrated by lineage tracing to give rise to all gastric cell lineages (e.g., the villin-transgene marker as well as Lgr5); (b) those that give rise to a subset of gastric lineages (e.g., TFF2); (c) markers that recognize cryptic progenitors for metaplasia (e.g., MIST1), and (d) markers that have not yet been analyzed by lineage tracing (e.g., DCKL1/DCAMKL1, CD133/PROM1, and CD44). The study of these markers has been mostly limited to the mouse model, but the hope is that the rapid pace of recent breakthroughs in this animal model will soon lead to a greater understanding of human gastric stem cell biology and to new insights into gastric cancer, the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide.
