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

Airway basal cells are crucial for regeneration of the human lung airway epithelium and are believed to be important contributors to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other lung disorders. To reveal how basal cells contribute to disease and to discover novel therapeutic targets, these basal cells need to be further characterized. In this study, we optimized a flow cytometry-based cell sorting protocol for primary human airway basal cells dependent on cell size and NGFR (nerve-growth factor receptor) expression. The basal cell population was found to be molecularly and functionally heterogeneous, in contrast to cultured basal cells. In addition, significant differences were found, such as
