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

purposeShp2 protein tyrosine phosphatase mediates a wide variety of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) cell signaling. Herein, we investigate the role of Shp2 in corneal morphogenesis and homeostasis.

methodsShp2 was conditionally knocked out (Shp2(cko)) in Krt14-rtTA;tet-O-Cre;Shp2(f/f) triple transgenic mice administrated with doxycycline (Dox) from postnatal day 1 (P1) to P10, P15, and P25, respectively. In addition, corneal epithelial debridement was performed in adult (P42) mice treated with or without Dox for 8 days (from P42-P50). Mouse eyes were then subjected to histology and immunohistochemistry.

resultsShp2(cko) revealed impaired stratification of conjunctival and corneal epithelia during morphogenesis. Likewise, Shp2(cko) failed to restore epithelial stratification after a corneal epithelial wound in adult Shp2(cko). At the cellular level, the ratio of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA-positive)/total basal cells remained unchanged, but cells in G2/M (survivin-positive) phase was significantly increased in Shp2(cko) as compared with those in the control littermate. Interestingly, deltaN-p63 (ΔNp63) expression and the asymmetric division of the basal cells were coincidentally dampened in Shp2(cko). Transmission electron microscopic study showed that desmosome and hemidesmosome densities were reduced in the corneal epithelium of Shp2(cko). Immunohistochemistry also demonstrated that expression of E-cadherin/β-catenin junction and laminin-β1 was extensively downregulated in Shp2(cko). On the other hand, corneal epithelium lacking Shp2 remained positive for K14, Pax-6, and keratin 12 (K12), suggesting that Shp2 was dispensable for the corneal epithelial-type differentiation.

conclusionsThese data argued that Shp2 deficiency predominantly impacted p63-dependent cell division and cell adhesive ability, which resulted in the impairment of stratification during corneal epithelial development and wound healing.
