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

Bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs) are not only expressed in the oral cavity but also in skin. Extraoral TAS2Rs are thought to be involved in non-taste perception and tissue-specific functions. Keratinocytes that express TAS2Rs in the skin provide a first-line defense against external threats. However, the functional roles of these receptors in host defense remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated the sensory role of intracellularly located TAS2Rs against toxic substances in keratinocytes. Although many G protein-coupled receptors elicit signals from the surface, TAS2Rs were found to localize intracellularly, possibly to the ER, in human keratinocytes and HaCaT cells. TAS2R38, one of the TAS2R members, activated the G
