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

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most deadly gastrointestinal disease in preterm neonates, with up to 50% mortality. There is no cure for NEC. Enhancing our understanding of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) responses to NEC will provide novel therapeutic targets. The RNA-binding protein insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 1 (IMP1) plays roles in intestinal development and repair. Notably, roles for IMP1 in NEC are unknown. Intestinal goblet cells produce protective mucus, and their function depends on the transcription factor SAM pointed domain containing ETS transcription factor (SPDEF). Evidence suggests that goblet cell mucus glycosylation affects barrier function and inflammation. We aimed to define the role of IMP1 in NEC damage response using neonatal human enteroids and an NEC-like intestinal injury model. At postnatal day 3, wild-type mice or littermates with IEC-specific IMP1 overexpression (
