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

Schwann cells, the myelinating glial cells of the peripheral nervous system are remarkably plastic after nerve trauma. Their transdifferentiation into specialized repair cells after injury shares some features with their development from the neural crest. Both processes are governed by a tightly regulated balance between activators and inhibitors to ensure timely lineage progression and allow re-maturation after nerve injury. Functional recovery after injury is very successful in rodents, however, in humans, lack of regeneration after nerve trauma and loss of function as the result of peripheral neuropathies represents a significant problem. Our understanding of the basic molecular machinery underlying Schwann cell maturation and plasticity has made significant progress in recent years and novel players have been discovered. While the transcriptional activators of Schwann cell development and nerve repair have been well defined, the mechanisms counteracting negative regulation of (re-)myelination are less well understood. Recently, transcriptional inhibition has emerged as a new regulatory mechanism in Schwann cell development and nerve repair. This mini-review summarizes some of the regulatory mechanisms controlling both processes and the novel concept of "inhibiting the inhibitors" in the context of Schwann cell plasticity.
