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

Stem cell factor (SCF) is an essential cytokine during development and is necessary for gametogenesis, hematopoiesis, mast cell development, stem cell function, and melanogenesis. Here, we measure SCF concentration and distribution in adult humans and mice using gene expression analysis, tissue staining, and organ protein lysates. We demonstrate continued SCF expression in many cell types and tissues into adulthood. Tissues with high expression in adult humans included stomach, spleen, kidney, lung, and pancreas. In mice, we found high SCF expression in the esophagus, ovary, uterus, kidney, and small intestine. Future studies may correlate our findings of increased, organ-specific SCF concentrations within adult tissues with increased risk of SCF/CD117-related disease.
