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

objectivesTo investigate the role of dibenzazepine (DBZ) in promoting supporting cell (SC) proliferation and hair cell (HC) regeneration in the inner ear. MATERIALS AND

methodsPostnatal day 1 wild-type or neomycin-damaged mouse cochleae were cultured with DBZ. Immunohistochemistry and scanning electron microscopy were used to examine the morphology of cochlear cells, and high-throughput RNA-sequencing was used to measure gene expression levels.

resultsWe found that DBZ promoted SC proliferation and HC regeneration in a dose-dependent manner in both normal and damaged cochleae. In addition, most of the newly regenerated HCs induced by DBZ had visible and relatively mature stereocilia bundle structures. Finally, RNA sequencing detected the differentially expressed genes between DBZ treatment and controls, and interaction networks were constructed for the most highly differentially expressed genes.

conclusionsOur study demonstrates that DBZ can significantly promote SC proliferation and increase the number of mitotically regenerated HCs with relatively mature stereocilia bundles in the neonatal mouse cochlea by inhibiting Notch signalling and activating Wnt signalling, suggesting the DBZ might be a new therapeutic target for stimulating HC regeneration.
