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

Paraffin sections were obtained of human fetal, adult, and pathological lung (pulmonary fibrosis after radiotherapy or chemotherapy). The localization of epithelial adhesion molecules E-cadherin and Ep-CAM (former epithelial surface 40 kDa glycoprotein) was investigated by immunoperoxidase and/or immunofluorescence techniques with monoclonal antibodies. During development, the epithelia of the primary pulmonary primordium, the secondary bronchi and the adult bronchial epithelium retained immunoreactivity for E-cadherin and Ep-CAM with lateral immunostaining of cell membranes. In normal adult lungs, Ep-CAM was detected in type I and II alveolar epithelial cells, whereas E-cadherin was confined to the basolateral domain of type II cells. In pulmonary fibrosis, Ep-CAM could be further detected on the cell surface of epithelial remnants. In contrast, E-cadherin expression was characterized by a change of the membrane localization to a spotty, cytoplasmic pattern in the alveolar epithelium, possibly indicating functional inactivation of the protein during fibrogenesis.
