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

Formation of our highly structured human brain involves a cascade of events, including differentiation, fate determination, and migration of neural precursors. In humans, unlike many other organisms, the cerebral cortex is the largest component of the brain. As in other mammals, the human cerebral cortex is located on the surface of the telencephalon and generally consists of six layers that are formed in an orderly fashion. During neuronal development, newly born neurons, moving in a radial direction, must migrate through previously formed layers to reach their proper cortical position. This is one of several neuronal migration routes that takes place in the developing brain; other modes of migration are tangential. Abnormal neuronal migration may in turn result in abnormal development of the cortical layers and deleterious consequences, such as Lissencephaly. Lissencephaly, a severe brain malformation, can be caused by mutations in one of two known genes: LIS1 and doublecortin (DCX). Recent in vitro and in vivo studies, report on possible functions for these gene products.
