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

backgroundThe cellular origin and molecular mechanisms of Barrett's esophagus (BE) are still controversial. Trans-differentiation is a mechanism characterized by activation of the intestinal differentiation program and inactivation of the squamous differentiation program.

aimsRenal capsule grafting (RCG) was used to elucidate whether CDX2 overexpression on the basis of P63 deficiency in the esophageal epithelium may generate intestinal metaplasia.

methodsP63

resultsThe P63

conclusionCDX2 overexpression on the basis of P63 deficiency in esophageal epithelial cells induces Barrett's-like metaplasia in vivo. Additional factors may be needed to drive this transitional phenotype into full-blown BE.
