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

This review gives detailed technical protocols for dissection of embryonic mammary rudiments and preparation of tissue recombinants composed of embryonic mouse mammary mesenchyme and epithelium. This experimental protocol was used in several seminal experiments that have greatly increased our understanding of embryonic mammary gland development, including the finding that mammary mesenchyme induces and specifies mammary epithelial identity. Analysis of mesenchymal-epithelial interactions has facilitated identification of molecular mediators of cell-cell interactions, in particular the tissue-specific roles of genes expressed in mesenchyme and epithelium during embryonic development.
