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

Epidermal stem cells interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) to regulate their differentiation and maintain skin architecture. Here, we demonstrate a novel role for basal epidermal stem cells (BECs)-ECM interaction in regulating adhesion molecules expressed by the periderm-the superficial epidermal cells (SECs) of the embryonic bilayered skin. Using the developing zebrafish fin fold, we identify BECs form distinct regions of collagen-versus laminin-enriched basement membranes through integrin-mediated adhesions. Mechanistically, collagen-associated BECs form desmosomes and adherens junctions (AJs) with SECs while laminin-associated BECs display reduced desmosomes but sustain AJs and actomyosin expression with SECs. Notably, we show both
