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

Rho family of small GTPases are key regulators for morphological changes of neurons on the basis of reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Rnd1, a novel member of this family, is predominantly expressed in neurons in brain; however, the neuronal functions of Rnd1 are not known. Here we investigated the effect of Rnd1 on neuronal morphology. Northern blot analysis of Rnd1 expression in rat brain showed that Rnd1 mRNA was highly expressed during early postnatal period, the synaptogenic stage. In situ hybridization analysis at this period revealed that Rnd1 mRNA was strongly expressed in neurons, including the hippocampal pyramidal neurons. Furthermore, immunoblot analysis showed that Rnd1 protein was localized in synaptosomal membrane fraction. Ectopical overexpression of Rnd1 in cultured rat hippocampal neurons promoted the elongation of dendritic spines. On the other hand, suppression of endogenous Rnd1 level by antisense oligonucleotide of Rnd1 caused the increase in the percentage of headless protrusions accompanied by the reduction in the spine number and spine width and shortened the length of the headless protrusions. These results indicate that Rnd1 plays a role in spine formation in the developmental synaptogenic stage.
