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

The skin is the largest and a remarkably plastic organ that serves as a protective barrier against environmental stimuli and injuries throughout life. Skin injuries are serious health problems, and wound healing is a critical process to replace devitalized cellular and tissue structures. Although some endogenous opioids are known to be involved in the modulation of wound healing, it remains to be determined whether the β-neoendorphin (β-NEP), an endogenous opioid, has beneficial effects on wound repair in human keratinocyte. In this study, we found that β-NEP accelerated wound repair through activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/Erk1/2 signaling pathways in human keratinocytes. Moreover, the wound healing effect of β-NEP is mainly through the acceleration of keratinocyte migration without affecting cell proliferation. Therefore, our studies reveal that β-NEP plays an important role in the regulation of wound repair and suggest a therapeutic strategy to promote wound healing using β-NEP.
