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

The fingertip is one of the only known complex structures in mammals that can fully regenerate following amputation. This phenomenon can be studied in mice using the amputation of the digit tip, the regenerative success of which has been shown to be reliant on effective bone clearance prior to new bone formation. In this issue of the JCI, Vishlaghi et al. investigated whether local lymphatic vessels are involved in this process. Interestingly, they found that inhibiting lymphangiogenesis resulted in accelerated clearance of damaged tissue and bone, thereby improving subsequent digit regeneration. This study is the first to our knowledge to report lymphatic involvement in digit regeneration and raises questions regarding the underlying mechanisms at play.
