Notch signaling promotes intestinal crypt fission in the infant rat.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
backgroundGrowth of the small intestine in the infant rat is promoted by crypt fission and later by increased crypt cell proliferation. Notch signaling could promote crypt fission. Hes-1 is a Notch target gene.
aimWe assessed the effect of Notch signaling on intestinal crypt fission and on growth of the intestine in the infant rat.
methodsHes-1 expression was determined in the small intestine of litters of Hooded Wistar rats aged between 3 and 72 days. Hes-1 RNA expression was measured by quantitative RT-PCR. Four groups of rats (n = 8 or 9) were injected daily, ip, either with vehicle or with the Notch inhibitor DAPT at doses of 3, 10, and 30 mg/kg, from days 9 to 13 of life, and killed on day 14. A microdissection technique was used to measure crypt fission, mitotic count, and apoptotic count. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and by use of Dunnett's F test.
resultsHes-1 expression and crypt fission peaked on day 14. DAPT reduced Hes-1 immunostaining in proportion to dose. DAPT reduced villous area to 72 % (p < 0.01), 53 % (p < 0.001), and 38 % (p < 0.001) of control values for 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg doses, respectively, and reduced crypt fission to 53 % (p < 0.001) and 38 % (p < 0.001) of control values, respectively, for 10 and 30 mg/kg doses. Crypt mitotic count was not affected by any DAPT dose. DAPT at 10 and 30 mg/kg significantly increased apoptosis in crypts, by 6.5 and 4.8-fold, respectively.
conclusionsWe conclude that Notch signaling promotes crypt fission and growth of the intestine by maintaining low apoptosis of crypt cells.
