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

A3, generated as a monoclonal antibody against rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH)-derived cloned cells, recognizes somatic stem cells (bone-marrow/hair follicle stem cells). We investigated the distribution of cells immunoreactive to A3 in the developing rat intestine (particularly, the colon), focusing on the ontogenic kinetics of A3-positive cells. In the rat intestine, A3 labeled spindle-shaped stromal cells localized in the submucosa and labeled endothelial cells of capillaries in the lamina propria forming villi in the early development stage. With development progression, A3-positive cells were exclusively localized around the crypts of the colon. Double immunofluorescence revealed that A3-positive cells around the crypts reacted to vimentin (for mesenchymal cells) and Thy-1 (for mesenchymal stromal cells) but not to α-SMA (for mesenchymal myofibroblastic cells) or CD34 (for hematopoietic stem cells), indicating that A3-positive cells around the crypts may have characteristics of immature mesenchymal cells. In addition, A3 labeled a few epithelial cells at the base of colon crypts. Furthermore, immunoelectron microscopy revealed that A3-positive cells lay inside myofibroblasts adjacent to the epithelium of the crypts. A3-positive cells were regarded as a new type of immature mesenchymal cells around the crypts. Collectively, A3-positive cells might take part in the stem cell niche in the colon, which is formed through epithelial-mesenchymal interaction.
