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 embryonic sites in which progenitors of the hematopoietic lineages first emerge are ideal regions to characterize both the cells and environment needed to initiate blood cell development. For a number of years both the murine yolk sac and embryo have been recognized to contain progenitors of B lymphocytes. However, clonal, quantitative in vitro assays, which allow precise observation of precursors and their progeny, have been lacking. Moreover, the site of origin of the initial events remains controversial. In this report we document the presence of B-cell progenitors in yolk sac and embryonic tissue obtained from mouse fetuses beginning at the 10-somite stage, day 8.5. We determine the frequency, cell-surface phenotype, and growth properties of these progenitors. We show that these cells can differentiate into immunoglobulin-secreting cells and that the progeny derived from single progenitors are diverse with respect to immunoglobulin heavy-chain allotype expression, diversity-joining region use, and heavy-chain variable-region utilization.
