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

In this review the authors discuss the possible neuropathological role of intracellular amyloid-beta accumulation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. There is abundant evidence that at early stages of the disease, prior to A-beta amyloid plaque formation, A-beta peptides accumulate intraneuronally in the cerebral cortex and the hippocampus. The experimental evidence would indicate that intracellular amyloid-beta could originate both by intracellular biosynthesis and also from the uptake of amyloidogenic peptides from the extracellular milieu. Herein the aspects of the possible impact of intracellular amyloid-beta in human AD pathology are discussed, as well as recent observations from a rat transgenic model with a phenotype of intracellular accumulation of A-beta fragments in neurons of the hippocampus and cortex, without plaque formation. In this model, the intracellular amyloid-beta phenotype is accompanied by increased MAPK/ERK activity and tau hyperphosphorylation. Finally, the authors discuss the hypothesis that, prior to plaque formation, intracellular A-beta accumulation induces biochemical and pathological changes in the brain at the cellular level priming neurons to further cytotoxic attack of extracellular amyloidogenic peptides.
