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

backgroundSenescence increases the risks of inflammatory bowel diseases and colon cancer. Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) in crypts differentiate into epithelial cells and thereby maintain intestinal homeostasis. However, the influence of aging on the functions of ISCs is largely unknown. The mutation rate is highest in the small and large intestines. Numerous types of naturally occurring DNA damage are removed by the DNA damage response (DDR). This response induces DNA repair and apoptosis; therefore, its dysregulation leads to accumulation of damaged DNA and consequently cellular dysfunctions, including tumorigenesis. This study investigated whether aging affects the DDR in mouse ISCs.

methodsYoung (2-3-month-old) and old (> 19-month-old) Lgr5-EGFP-IRES-creERT2 mice were irradiated. The DDR in Lgr5-positive ISCs was compared between these mice by immunohistochemical analyses.

resultsInduction of DDR marker proteins (phosphorylated ATR and 53BP1), inflammatory factors (phosphorylated NF-κB and interleukin-6), and a mitochondrial biogenesis-associated gene (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α) was lower in old ISCs than in young ISCs in vivo.

conclusionThe competence of the DDR in ISCs declines with age in vivo.
