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

The role of hedgehog (Hh) signaling in B lymphopoiesis has remained unclear. We observed that the proliferation of pro-B cells in stromal cocultures was impaired by interruption of Hh signaling, prompting us to investigate whether the target of Hh antagonism was intrinsic or extrinsic to the B-lymphoid compartment. In the present study, using conditional deletion of the pathway activator gene Smo, we found that cell-autonomous Hh signaling is dispensable for B-cell development, B-lymphoid repopulation of the BM, and humoral immune function. In contrast, depletion of the Smo protein from stromal cells was associated with impaired generation of B-lymphoid cells from hematopoietic stem progenitor cells, whereas reciprocal removal of Smo from these cells had no effect on the production of B-cell progenitors. Depletion of Smo from stromal cells was associated with coordinate down-regulation of genes for which expression is associated with osteoblastoid identity and B-lymphopoietic activity. The results of the present study suggest that activity of the Hh pathway within stromal cells promotes B lymphopoiesis in a non-cell-autonomous fashion.
