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 human epidermal clonal evolution, i.e. the transition from stem cells (SCs) to transient amplifying (TA)-cells and post-mitotic cells, is a continuous and tightly regulated process that ensures physiologic tissue homeostasis. The Ras family of small GTPases has a key role in skin homeostasis and tumorigenesis. Indeed, activating mutations in Ras genes have been found in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCCs) and in experimentally-induced murine cSCCs. In mouse models, the Ras signaling might lead to hyperproliferative phenotypes, including the development of cSCCs, depending on the nature of the founding cells. Tumor-initiating cells or Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) have been demonstrated in murine and human cSCCs even if the mechanism of their development from normal SCs or TA-cells is not completely elucidated. Here, the relation between the Ras expression outcome and the clonogenic potential of the target keratinocyte is discussed.
