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

backgroundThe retinal homeobox (rx/rax) gene is a transcription factor expressed in the developing eye field that is necessary for normal eye development. rax is necessary for retinal specification and stem cell development. The genetic program of early retinal development, including rax expression, can be induced in naïve ectoderm by activation of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling. We have undertaken a microarray-based approach to identify rax-dependent IGF-induced genes.

resultsWe identified 21 IGF-induced genes that exhibit at least a two-fold decrease in expression when rax expression is knocked down. Ten of these genes were expressed in the developing eye, eight were expressed in the ciliary marginal zone of the mature tadpole retina, and four could significantly rescue the rax knockdown phenotype. One of these, the nei endonuclease VIII-like 3 (neil3) gene, rescued the rax knockdown phenotype to a remarkable degree. We found that neil3 is necessary for normal retinal lamination and retinal neuron differentiation.

conclusionsWe have identified neil3 as a component of the rax genetic pathway necessary for normal retinal progenitor cell development. neil3 is involved in the base excision DNA repair pathway, suggesting that this pathway is essential for normal rax-dependent progenitor cell development in the mature retina.
