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

Genetic tools to identify and isolate specific cell types are required to study different model systems in an organism. Such tools to study sensory neurons in trigeminal and dorsal root ganglia are insufficient, making research progress in somatosensation difficult. Our study aimed to distinctly visualize and identify these peripheral sensory neurons in the mouse somatosensory system. We generated bacterial artificial chromosome transgenic mouse lines expressing the red fluorescent protein (RFP) in nuclei of Advillin (Avil)-positive neurons to help with the scarcity of bioresources. In these mice, RFP was specifically expressed in the trigeminal ganglion (TG) and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in adulthood, consistent with previous reports. We also assessed RFP expression in the TG and DRG of these mice during embryonic and postnatal development. The TG RFP expression became evident around embryonic day 16.5 and continued across the postnatal period; in the DRG, it became apparent around postnatal day 0, continuing further. Lastly, almost all TG neurons (~90%) expressed RFP. These transgenic lines are valuable for studying the murine somatosensory system across developmental stages.
