Expression of BMP-4 and Smad1 in patients with Hirschsprung disease and its clinical significance.

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.
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
Expression and clinical significance of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-4 and Smad1 in patients with Hirschsprung disease (HD) were investigated. A retrospective analysis of 96 HD patients (experimental group) admitted to Xuzhou Children's Hospital, Xuzhou Medical University from June 2015 to June 2017 was performed. According to the samples, the experimental group was divided into the stenosis group, the transition group and the expansion group. Forty-seven children with colostomy due to intestinal obstruction were selected as the control group. The expression levels of BMP-4 and Smad1 proteins were detected by immunohistochemical staining. The expression levels of BMP-4 and Smad mRNA were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and were quantified and compared. Via immunohistochemistry, BMP-4 and Smad1 proteins were detected in the samples of different parts of HD patients and children with intestinal obstruction. The positive expression levels of BMP-4 and Smad1 proteins in the transition group were decreased compared with those in the expansion and control groups (P<0.05), and the positive expression levels of BMP-4 and Smad1 proteins in the stenosis group were decreased compared with those in the transition, expansion, and control groups (P<0.05). Also, the gene expression levels of BMP-4 and Smad1 in the transition and stenosis groups were successively decreased, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). In conclusion, the expression of BMP-4 and Smad1 in the intestinal plexus of HD lesions was significantly reduced, indicating that BMP-4 and Smad1 are closely related to the occurrence of HD, and it is suspected that they have a certain influence on the intestinal development of congenital digestive tract malformations.
