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

There are different β-tubulin isoforms in microtubules of vertebrate tissues. However, their functional significance is still largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the localization of five β-tubulin isotypes (β1-5) within the hearing organ during development in rat. By using confocal microscopy, we showed that with the exception of the β3-tubulin isoform that was specific to nerve fibres, all the different β-tubulin isoforms were mainly present in the supporting cells. Contrary to β1-4-tubulins, we also found that the β5-tubulin isoform appeared only at a key stage of the post-natal development in specific cell types (pillar cells and Deiters' cells). By using transmission electron microscopy, we revealed further that this developmental stage coincided with the formation of two separate bundles of microtubules from a unique one in these supporting cells. Together, these results suggest that the β5-tubulin isoform might be involved in the generation of new microtubule bundles from a pre-existing one.
