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

Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular (Eph) receptors and their ligands ephrin are membrane-bound molecules that modulate diverse cellular functions in various tissues. We recently reported the co-expression of Efnb1 (ephrin-B1) and Ephb4 (EphB4) in steroidogenic cells of the ovary. Based on these previous findings, we examined the expression and localization of ephrin-B1 and EphB4 in steroidogenic cells of the mouse adrenal gland using RT-PCR and immunofluorescence techniques. To the best of my knowledge, ephrin-B1 and EphB4 expression patterns in the adrenal gland are virtually unknown. We found that ephrin-B1 and EphB4 were co-expressed in steroidogenic cells of zona glomerulosa (zG) and zona fasciculata (zF) in the adrenal cortex of mice. Ephrin-B1 and EphB4 were also co-expressed in cells of x-zone (xZ) in female mice. We also found that ephrin-B1 and EphB4 expression in zG was strong and weak respectively. Ephrin-B1 and EphB4 expression in cells of zF were faint in cells of both mice while strong in juxtamedullary cells of zF in male mice. Ephrin-B1 and EphB4 expression were faint and weak in xZ in female mice respectively. The study represents the first expression analysis of ephrin-B1 and EphB4 in steroidogenic cells in the adrenal glands of the male and female mice.
