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 unsegmented axial mesenchyme is the first anlage of the embryonic vertebral column in amniotes. Its development and differentiation are influenced by the notochord. The appearance of extracellular matrix (ECM) components which may regulate the developmental processes in the human embryonic axial mesenchyme and the notochord was studied in 5 human embryos between Carnegie stages 12 and 14 (4th and early 5th gestational wk) by using Alcian blue histochemistry and immunohistochemistry with antibodies against types I and II collagens, the proteoglycans aggrecan, biglycan and decorin, the glycoproteins fibronectin, laminin and tenascin and the growth factor TGF-beta. The results demonstrate that the notochordal sheath contains high amounts of sulphated glycosaminoglycans, hyaluronic acid and the glycoproteins fibronectin, laminin and tenascin during all developmental stages examined. Additionally type II collagen and the small proteoglycan decorin were found. Type I collagen and the small proteoglycan biglycan could be detected in notochordal cells. The number of TGF-beta-immunoreactive notochordal cells increased between stages 12 and 14. The ECM of the axial mesenchyme is rich in sulphated glycosaminoglycans, hyaluronic acid, fibronectin and tenascin. Strong immunoreactions for collagen type I were found only during the early stage 12. The absence of aggrecan and keratan sulphate indicates that large aggregating proteoglycan complexes are missing. Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions which may be influenced by TGF-beta and the ECM components demonstrated are discussed.
