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

The epithelial lining of the stomach undergoes rapid turnover to preserve its structural and functional integrity, a process driven by long-lived stem cells residing in the antral and corpus glands. Several subpopulations of gastric stem cells have been identified and their phenotypic and functional diversities linked to spatiotemporal specification of stem cells niches. Here, we review the biological features of gastric stem cells at various locations of the stomach under homeostatic conditions, as demonstrated by reporter mice, lineage tracing, and single cell sequencing. We also review the role of gastric stem cells in epithelial regeneration in response to injury. Moreover, we discuss emerging evidence demonstrating that accumulation of oncogenic drivers or alteration of stemness signaling pathways in gastric stem cells promotes gastric cancer. Given a fundamental role of the microenvironment, this review highlights the role reprogramming of niche components and signaling pathways under pathological conditions in dictating stem cell fate. Several outstanding issues are raised, such as the relevance of stem cell heterogeneity and plasticity, and epigenetic regulatory mechanisms, to Helicobacter pylori infection-initiated metaplasia-carcinogenesis cascades. With the development of spatiotemporal genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, as well as multiplexed screening and tracing approaches, we anticipate that more precise definition and characterization of gastric stem cells, and the crosstalk with their niche will be delineated in the near future. Rational exploitation and proper translation of these findings may bring forward novel modalities for epithelial rejuvenation and cancer therapeutics.
