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

Sall3 is a member of a gene family with homology to the spalt gene of Drosophila melanogaster, encoding transcription factors, and acts as downstream target of hedgehog. Vertebrate homologues of spalt have been shown to be involved in development of the limbs and nervous system and several organs including the kidney and heart; mutations in the genes are implicated in several human genetic disorders. Recent studies have shown a total loss of olfactory bulb (OB) dopaminergic (DA) neurons in Sall3-null mice. We assume that tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) may be regulated by Sall3 in OB. In this study, we find that Sall3 and TH co-localize in glomerular layer (GL) of OB. Furthermore, we demonstrate a significant induction of the proximal TH promoter transcription activity by Sall3 in dual-luciferase reporter assay and a reduction of TH expression level in Sall3-deficient cell lines. Collectively, these findings support the notion that Sall3 correlates with the expression of TH in mouse OB and may have a role in OB DA neuron development by regulating TH gene expression. The results from this study may advance our understanding of the molecular pathways of OB in the DA neuron development and differentiation.
