Article in The Journal of investigative dermatology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1) is generally regarded as an anti-inflammatory cytokine. However, previous studies suggest that TGFβ1 can promote immune responses under certain conditions. In this issue, Mohammed et al. report that epidermal keratinocyte-derived TGFβ1 alone can alter homeostasis of multiple cutaneous dendritic cell (DC) subsets, which may enhance skin inflammation. These findings may provide a better understanding of the pathogenesis of inflammatory skin disorders such as psoriasis, although how keratinocyte-derived TGFβ1 regulates cutaneous DCs under physiological and inflammatory conditions should be further addressed.
