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

Laminin and nidogen (entactin) are major glycoprotein components of basement membranes. At least seven different isoforms of laminin have been identified. Laminin and nidogen form high affinity complexes in basement membranes by specific binding between the laminin gamma 1 chain and the G3 globule of nidogen. Additional interactions between nidogen and collagen IV, perlecan and other basement membrane components result in the formation of ternary complexes between these matrix components. Nidogen is highly susceptible to proteolytic cleavage, and binding to laminin protects nidogen from degradation. Nidogen is considered to have a crucial role as a link protein in the assembly of basement membranes. Basement membrane components are synthesized at high levels during tissue growth and development, and sites of morphogenesis correlate with localized remodelling of basement membranes. The formation of distinct basement membrane matrices in the developing embryo is influenced by the laminin isoforms produced and by whether laminin and nidogen are co-expressed and secreted as a complex or are produced by cooperation between two cell layers. The potential roles of laminin-nidogen complexes, cell-matrix interactions, and other intermolecular interactions within the matrix in basement membrane assembly and stability are discussed in this review.
