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

Programmed cell death during embryonic development plays a vital role in shaping limb morphology in amniotes. BMP (bone morphogenetic protein) signaling has been shown to be essential for inducing interdigital cell death, but its relationship with reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, another driver of this process, remains unclear. Here, we show that BMP signaling modulates ROS production, which is required for subsequent cell death in the interdigital regions of chicken hindlimbs. Through transcriptome analyses, we identify the candidate genes encoding molecular machinery potentially involved in ROS production in response to changes in BMP signaling. Our findings suggest that BMP signaling may influence the redox balance by upregulating the genes encoding ROS-generating enzymes such as Nox2 and Nox4 (components of NADPH oxidase), and downregulating the ROS-scavenging enzyme Sod1. Pharmacological inhibition of NADPH oxidase reduces ROS levels and cell death, indicating that ROS production in the chicken interdigital cell regions is at least partially NADPH oxidase-dependent. Together, these results support a model in which BMP signaling is required for the regulation of programmed cell death, at least in part by modulating redox homeostasis.
