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

C3G, a Rap1 GEF, promotes megakaryopoiesis and platelet function. Using transgenic and knock-out mouse models targeting C3G in megakaryocytes, we investigated whether C3G also affects the niche function of megakaryocytes during bone marrow (BM) recovery after myeloablation induced by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), or total body irradiation (TBI) followed by bone marrow transplantation. C3G promoted megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production during recovery, along with increased white and red blood cell counts and enhanced survival of female mice after repeated doses of 5-FU. Additionally, megakaryocytes favored adipocyte differentiation through a C3G-mediated mechanism, likely involving Fgf1. Changes in the number or behavior of BM megakaryocytes and adipocytes influenced the hematopoietic stem cell pool, with C3G promoting its bias towards the myeloid-megakaryocytic lineage in both 5-FU- and TBI-ablated models. Therefore, C3G could be a potential target in therapies aimed at enhancing hematopoiesis in patients undergoing chemotherapy and/or BM transplantation.
