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

Regulations of cell motility and proliferation are essential for epithelial development and homeostasis. However, it is not fully understood how these cellular activities are coordinated in epithelial collectives. In this study, we find that keratinocyte sheets exhibit time-dependent coordination of collective cell movement and cell cycle progression after seeding cells. Cell movement and cell cycle progression are coordinately promoted by Rac1 in the "early phase" (earlier than ∼30 h after seeding cells), which is not abrogated by increasing the initial cell density to a saturated level. The Rac1 activity is gradually attenuated in the "late phase" (later than ∼30 h after seeding cells), leading to arrests in cell motility and cell cycle. Intact adherens junctions are required for normal coordination between cell movement and cell cycle progression in both early and late phases. Our results unveil a novel basis for integrating motile and proliferative behaviors of epithelial collectives.
