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

Hair follicle regeneration is dependent on reciprocal signaling between epithelial cells and underlying mesenchymal cells within the dermal papilla. Hair follicle dermal stem cells reside within the hair follicle mesenchyme, self-renew in vivo, and function to repopulate the dermal papilla and regenerate the connective tissue sheath with each hair cycle. The identity and temporal pattern of signals that regulate hair follicle dermal stem cell function are not known. Here, we show that platelet-derived growth factor signaling is crucial for hair follicle dermal stem cell function and platelet-derived growth factor deficiency results in a progressive depletion of the hair follicle dermal stem cell pool and their progeny.
