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

Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) promotes the survival of postnatal-but not embryonic-mouse dorsal root ganglion cells in vitro, despite the fact that its receptors are expressed at both ages. To understand this difference, we have performed an oligonucleotide microarray experiment. We found that several hundred genes were regulated between embryonic and postnatal stages, and that several important classes of genes were differentially regulated by GDNF treatment, including genes related to translation and to phenotypic specification and maturation. Interestingly, a set of genes related to cell adhesion, cytoskeleton and cellular morphology were consistently down-regulated by GDNF, suggesting a previously uncharacterized role for GDNF in repressing neurite growth and/or branching. This nuclear program initiated by GDNF was functionally confirmed in cultures of embryonic wild-type neurons sustained with nerve growth factor and in bax(-/-) neurons that survive in the absence of trophic support.
