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

In bone marrow, cell numbers are balanced between production and loss. After chemotherapy, blood cell counts decrease initially but later recover as hematopoietic progenitor cells expand, although the mechanisms underlying this recovery are still unclear. We investigated the influence of red blood cells (RBCs) on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function during bone marrow recovery. Following chemotherapy, RBC concentrations in bone marrow peaked on day 5 posttreatment, coinciding with the recovery of hematopoiesis. Coculture of HSCs with RBCs resulted in a significant increase in hematopoiesis. Direct contact between RBCs and HSCs was essential for enhancement of hematopoiesis, and HSCs precultured with RBCs resulted in greater numbers of donor-derived mature hematopoietic cells after transplantation. RNA-sequencing analysis showed that Hes1 was the most significantly upregulated transcription factor in RBC coculture, and the response to RBC-induced hematopoiesis of Hes1-deficient HSCs was reduced. These findings imply a role of RBCs and Hes1 in the enhancement of hematopoietic recovery following bone marrow stress.
