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

The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) regulates neuronal survival, apoptosis, and growth. Recent studies have reported that disruption of Exon IV produces a null mouse lacking all p75NTR gene products (p75NTRExonIV-/-), whereas mice lacking p75NTR Exon III (p75NTRExonIII-/-) maintain expression of an alternatively spliced form of p75NTR (s-p75NTR). Here, we report that p75NTRExonIV-/- mice express a p75NTR gene product that encodes a truncated protein containing the extracellular stalk region together with the entire transmembrane and intracellular domains. The gene product is initiated from a cryptic Kozak consensus/initiator ATG sequence within a region of Exon IV located 3' to the pGK-Neo insertion site. Overexpression of this fragment in heterologous cells results in activation of Jun kinase and induces Pro-caspase-3 cleavage, indicating that it activates p75NTR signaling cascades. These results indicate that aspects of the p75NTRExonIV-/- phenotype may reflect a gain-of-function mutation rather than loss of p75NTR function.
