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 epithelium of mucosal and skin surfaces serves as a permeability barrier and affords mechanisms for local immune defense. Crucial to the development and maintenance of a properly functioning epithelium is the balance of cell proliferation, differentiation, and death. Here we show that this balance depends on cross-regulatory interactions among multiple protein kinase-mediated signals and their coordinated transmission. From an investigation of conditional gene knock-out mice, we find that epithelial-specific loss of the protein kinase p38α leads to aberrant activation of TAK1, JNK, EGF receptor, and ERK in distinct microanatomical areas of the intestines and skin. Consequently, the epithelial tissues display excessive proliferation, inadequate differentiation, and sensitivity to apoptosis. These anomalies leave the tissue prone to damage and collapse at the trigger of an environmental insult. The vulnerability of p38α-deficient epithelium predicts adverse effects of long term pharmacological p38α inhibition; yet such limitations could be overcome by concomitant blockade of one or more of the dysregulated protein kinase signaling pathways.
