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

backgroundEctopic olfactory receptors (ORs) are found in the skin, but their expression and biological function in normal skin and skin form patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) are unknown.

objectivesWe sought to characterize the expression of ORs in the skin and assess OR-mediated biological responses of primary human keratinocytes in the presence of odorant ligands.

methodsOR expression was examined by using whole-transcriptome sequencing of skin tape strips collected from patients with AD and healthy control (HC) subjects. OR10G7 and filaggrin 1 (FLG-1) expression was analyzed by using RT-PCR and immunostaining in skin biopsy specimens and primary human keratinocytes from patients with AD and HC subjects. ATP and cyclic AMP production by control and OR10G7 small interfering RNA-transfected keratinocytes in response to odorant stimulation with acetophenone and eugenol was assessed.

resultsA total of 381 OR gene transcripts were detected in the skin samples, with the greatest OR expression detected in the skin tape strips corresponding to the upper granular layer of the skin. OR10G7 expression was significantly increased in skin biopsy specimens from patients with AD compared with those from HC subjects (P = .01) and inversely correlated with FLG-1 expression (P = .009). OR10G7 expression was greatest in undifferentiated keratinocytes from patients with AD and was downregulated with progressive differentiation. Primary human keratinocytes produced ATP, an essential neurotransmitter in sensory pathways, in response to acetophenone and eugenol, odorants previously identified as potential ligands for this receptor. This response was abolished in OR10G7 small interfering RNA-transfected keratinocytes.

conclusionsOR10G7 is expressed at significantly greater levels in undifferentiated keratinocytes from patients with AD compared with HC subjects. OR10G7 is likely involved in transmission of skin-induced chemosensory responses to odorant stimulation, which might modulate differential nociceptive responses in AD skin.
