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

Activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) is a glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily that has been implicated in the processes of cell adhesion and migration. The current study examines the importance of ALCAM in regulating HaCaT cell growth and migration and its potential to impact on wound healing. ALCAM levels were examined in a range of clinical wound and normal skin samples using Q-PCR and immunohistochemistry. ALCAM expression was targeted in HaCaT keratinocyte cells using a hammerhead ribozyme transgene system. Subsequently, the impact of ALCAM suppression on HaCaT migration and growth was assessed. ALCAM protein was detected mainly in keratinocytes. ALCAM transcript levels were found to be significantly higher in the non-healed chronic wound samples compared with healed samples (P = 0·026). In addition, targeting of ALCAM in HaCaT cells brought about a substantial increase in cellular migration and growth compared with HaCaT control cells.Our results suggest that ALCAM plays an important role in the migration of HaCaT keratinocyte cells. The data also suggests that higher levels of ALCAM may impair healing in chronic wounds. The impact of ALCAM in wound healing may thus be somewhat due to its impact on cell migration and growth.
