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

Mechanosensory neurons (SNs) of Aplysia form synapses in culture with some targets (L7), but not others (L11), even when a SN is plated with both targets. We examined whether branch-specific net export of mRNA encoding synapse-specific molecules might contribute to branch-specific synapse formation. Single-cell RT-PCR was used to assay levels of mRNA encoding the SN-specific neuropeptide (sensorin A) and other transcripts in cell bodies and neuritic processes of SNs cultured alone or with synaptic targets. Some mRNAs are exported to neurites, but not others. Sensorin A mRNA is detected only in SN cell bodies and neurites, and expression levels correlate with the strength of the synaptic connections formed with L7 after 4 d in culture. After 4 d, more sensorin A transcripts are detected in SN neurites contacting L7 than in SN neurites contacting L11. The differential expression at 4 d is found even when a single SN contacts both targets simultaneously. By contrast, no significant difference in expression is detected in SN neurites contacting L7 versus L11 after 1 d of coculture. The results suggest that interaction and synapse formation with a specific target lead to a time-dependent change in the branch-specific accumulation of sensorin A mRNA in SNs. Because local protein synthesis at synaptic sites might contribute to synaptic function or plasticity, the results suggest that branch-specific targeting of mRNA encoding synapse-related molecules may contribute to the formation of specific synapses.
