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

We have used an antisense RNA strategy to investigate the role of the actin-associated protein, villin, in the brush-border morphogenesis of human intestinal CaCO2 cells. Stable expression of a cDNA encoding antisense villin RNA resulted in the permanent down-regulation of the endogenous villin message and dramatically affected brush-border assembly. Ultrastructural and immunolocalization studies revealed that epithelial cell polarity was largely maintained. However, in contrast to brush-border markers such as dipeptidyl-peptidase IV, the apical localization of sucrase-isomaltase was specifically impaired. Retransfection of the villin antisense-expressing cell line with a cDNA encoding a partial sense villin RNA restored both brush-border assembly and sucrase-isomaltase apical expression. The suggestion that brush-border morphogenesis may be important for the trafficking of certain proteins is discussed.
