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

Dermal fibroblasts are the main cell type present in skin connective tissue (dermis). They are responsible for the synthesis of dermal extracellular matrix (ECM), providing mechanical stability for the dermal layer. In addition, fibroblasts interact with epidermal cells during hair development and in interfollicular skin cells through bidirectional interactions and secretion of growth factors and cytokines. The changes in the fibroblast population correlate with structural, compositional, quantitative, and qualitative transformations of the main ECM proteins in the dermis, as well as with the age-related disorders, and the state and proliferative activity of basal keratinocytes that are the main cells in the epidermis. Moreover, fibroblasts play an essential role during cutaneous wound healing and in bio-engineering of skin. Hence, culture of primary fibroblast is gaining in importance. In addition, fibroblast cultures established from skin biopsies provide a powerful tool for investigating normal skin physiology or specific disease states. In this chapter, detailed procedures for the establishing and maintaining primary cultures of adult human dermal fibroblasts are described.
