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

Purkinje cells establish a glutamatergic synapse with the parallel fibers in the cerebellum. Bergmann glial cells surround this synapse. The transcription factor Stat3, highly expressed in cerebellum, is present in cultures of chick Bergmann glia. Treatment of these cells with L-glutamate induces the tyrosine-phosphorylation of Stat3. The maximal phosphorylation was observed after 15 min and by 30 min returned to basal levels. This effect correlated with Stat3 translocation to nucleus and the appearance of a retarded band in gel mobility shift assays. The effects observed with L-glutamate were mediated through metabotropic glutamate receptors. These results further support the notion that glial cells respond to L-glutamate through changes in the existing proteins and also in gene expression regulation.
