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

Proliferation and migration of epidermal keratinocytes are essential for proper cutaneous wound closure after injury. αv integrins and several of their ligands-vitronectin, TGFβ and thrombospondin-are up-regulated in healing wounds. However, the role of αv integrins in wound re-epithelialization is unknown. Here, we show that genetic depletion or antibody-mediated blockade of pan-integrin αv, or the specific heterodimer αvβ6, in keratinocytes limited epidermal proliferation at the wound edge and prevented re-epithelialization of wounded human organotypic skin both in vivo and in vitro. While we did not observe a migration defect upon αv blockade in vivo, αv was necessary for keratinocyte migration over longer distances in organotypic skin. Integrin αv is required for local activation of latent TGFβ, and the wound healing defect in the setting of integrin αv loss was rescued by exogenous, active TGFβ, indicating that the αv-TGFβ signaling axis is a critical component of the normal epidermal wound healing program. As chronic wounds are associated with decreased TGFβ signaling, restoration of TGFβ activity may have therapeutic utility in some clinical settings.
