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

Gene expression analysis under various conditions using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) needs reliable control genes. Housekeeping genes are commonly used as the control. However, no validated housekeeping gene is available for study of hypoxic neural stem cell culture. To choose appropriate internal control genes, the expression of eight commonly used housekeeping genes was examined in rat neural stem cell model to find one or more stably expressed genes under hypoxic/ischemic conditions. Two genes, HPRT and RPL13A were identified as the most confidential housekeeping genes in this research by geNorm and NormFinder softwares. As a groundwork, the most stable housekeeping genes for neural stem cells under hypoxic/ischemic conditions are initially investigated and validated in this experiment, which might provide a better understanding for the gene expression study in ischemic and necrotic neural stem cell cultures or in ischemic diseases of the central nervous system (CNS).
