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

purposeGlucocorticoids, stress-related hormones, inhibit hair growth. Intracellular glucocorticoid availability is regulated by 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1). 11β-HSD1 was recently detected in keratinocytes and fibroblasts. However, the expression of 11β-HSD1 in human hair follicles remains unknown. We aimed to examine 11β-HSD1 expression in human dermal papilla cells (DPCs) and to investigate whether modulation of 11β-HSD1 activity can regulate the negative effects of glucocorticoids on DPCs. MATERIALS AND

methods11β-HSD1 expression in normal human scalp skin was examined by immunohistochemistry. 11β-HSD1 protein was detected in Western blots of human DPCs. Cultured human DPCs were treated with cortisol with or without a selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitor and subsequently stained for Ki-67 antibody. Expression levels of 11β-HSD1, Wnt5a, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were analyzed by Western blotting.

results11β-HSD1 was detected in dermal papilla in human scalp skin by immunohistochemistry. Human DPCs expressed 11β-HSD1 protein in vitro. Furthermore, cortisol stimulated the expression of 11β-HSD1 in DPCs. Glucocorticoids decreased cellular proliferation and the expression of Wnt5a, ALP, and VEGF in DPCs. A specific 11β-HSD1 inhibitor significantly attenuated the anti-proliferative effects of cortisol and reversed the cortisol-induced suppression of Wnt5a, ALP, and VEGF expression in DPCs.

conclusionOur data demonstrated the expression of 11β-HSD1 in human DPCs and revealed that inhibition of 11β-HSD1 activity can partially prevent the negative effect of glucocorticoids on DPCs, suggesting the possible application of 11β-HSD1 inhibitors for stress-related hair loss.
