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

Cartilage acidic protein 1A (hCRTAC1-A) is an extracellular matrix protein (ECM) of human hard and soft tissue that is associated with matrix disorders. The central role of fibroblasts in tissue integrity and ECM health made primary human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) the model for the present study, which aimed to provide new insight into the molecular function of hCRTAC1-A. Specifically, we explored the differential expression patterns of specific genes associated with the presence of hCRTAC1-A by RNA-seq and RT-qPCR analysis. Functional enrichment analysis demonstrated, for the very first time, that hCRTAC1-A is involved in extracellular matrix organization and development, through its regulatory effect on asporin, decorin, and complement activity, in cell proliferation, regeneration, wound healing, and collagen degradation. This work provides a better understanding of putative hCRTAC1-A actions in human fibroblasts and a fundamental insight into its function in tissue biology.
