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

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are produced from the blood vessel walls and circulate in the blood during the perinatal period. However, the migration dynamics of how HSCs enter the bone marrow remain elusive. To observe the dynamics of HSCs over time, the present study develops an intravital imaging method to visualize bone marrow in neonatal long bones formed by endochondral ossification which is essential for HSC niche formation. Endogenous HSCs are labeled with tdTomato under the control of an HSC marker gene Hlf, and a customized imaging system with a bone penetrating laser is developed for intravital imaging of tdTomato-labeled neonatal HSCs in undrilled tibia, which is essential to avoid bleeding from fragile neonatal tibia by bone drilling. The migration speed of neonatal HSCs is higher than that of adult HSCs. Neonatal HSCs migrate from outside to inside the tibia via the blood vessels that penetrate the bone, which is a transient structure during the neonatal period, and settle on the blood vessel wall in the bone marrow. The results obtained from direct observations in vivo reveal the motile dynamics and colonization process of neonatal HSCs during bone marrow formation.
