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

Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17) is a familial neurological disorder, characterized genetically by autosomal dominant inheritance, clinically by behavioral abnormalities and parkinsonism, and neuropathologically by tauopathy. Linkage analyses of affected families have led to identification of several exonic and intronic mutations in the tau gene. In this study, we analyzed molecular species of tau in the soluble and insoluble fractions of brain affected by the FTDP-17 R406W mutation. Protein chemical analysis and Western blotting using site-specific antibodies indicated that almost equal amounts of wild-type and mutant tau were present in the Sarkosyl-insoluble fraction of the R406W brain. Consistent with this, wild-type and mutant tau colocalized in neurofibrillary tangles in the frontal cortex and hippocampus of the R406W brain. In contrast to soluble R406W tau, which was less phosphorylated than soluble wild-type tau, the Sarkosyl-insoluble mutant tau was highly phosphorylated as well as the insoluble wild-type tau.
