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

Gamma secretase (γ-secretase) is an enzymatic transmembrane complex responsible for the cleavage of over 100 substrates, including notch, E-cadherin, amyloid precursor protein, specific cytokine receptors, and other type I transmembrane proteins. Genetic variants in the γ-secretase complex are associated with familial hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), where they are predicted to inactivate enzymatic function. Further, γ-secretase inhibitors cause HS-like pathologies in patients with desmoid tumors. However, it is unclear how modulation of γ-secretase activity in keratinocytes impacts cellular processes and contributes to HS pathophysiology. We explored how the loss of γ-secretase function impacts keratinocyte-mediated inflammatory cytokine and chemokine production and adhesion, two key keratinocyte processes altered in HS. We used pharmacological inhibitors of γ-secretase (SCP0004, nirogacestat, and E2012) that have different mechanisms of action and substrate selectivity (eg
