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 extracellular matrix (ECM) is a crucial component in multicellular organisms, serving as both a structural scaffold and active signalling units. While the role of the ECM, namely, to maintain homeostasis and steer adaptive immunity, is well described in secondary lymphoid organs, it is underappreciated in the skin-despite remarkable molecular similarity. Here, we examine how the specialised organisation of the ECM influences B cell development and function in both skin and secondary lymphoid organs with a special focus on ECM-integrin signalling. We discuss the presence and function of B cells in healthy and diseased skin, including their role in wound healing, autoimmune responses and inflammatory conditions. Additionally, we explore the formation of tertiary lymphoid structures in chronic skin diseases as a window into studying B cell-ECM interactions. By integrating fundamental immunology with skin biology, we aim to identify key knowledge gaps and explore potential clinical implications of B cell-ECM interactions in dermatology and beyond.
