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), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) are the most potent neurotrophic factors for motoneurons, but their fate after retrograde axonal transport is not known. Internalized trophic factors may be degraded, or they may be recycled and transferred to other neurons, similar to the known route of tetanus toxin. We tested whether neonatal rat hypoglossal motoneurons target retrogradely transported trophic factors to synaptic sites on their dendrites within the brainstem and subsequently transfer these trophins across the synaptic cleft to afferent synapses (transsynaptic transcytosis). Motoneurons retrogradely transport from the tongue radiolabeled GDNF, BDNF, and CT-1 as well as tetanus toxin. Quantitative autoradiographic electron microscopy showed that GDNF and BDNF were transported into motoneuron dendrites with labeling densities similar to those of tetanus toxin. Although tetanus toxin accumulated rapidly (within 8 h) at presynaptic sites, GDNF accumulated at synapses more slowly (within 15 h), and CT-1 never associated with synapses. Thus, some retrogradely transported neurotrophic factors are trafficked similarly but not identically to tetanus toxin. Both GDNF and BDNF accumulate at the external (limiting) membrane of multivesicular bodies within proximal dendrites. We conclude that tetanus toxin, GDNF, and BDNF are released from postsynaptic sites and are internalized by afferent presynaptic terminals, thus demonstrating transsynaptic transcytosis. CT-1, however, follows a strict degradation pathway after retrograde transport to the soma. Synaptic and transcytotic trafficking thus are restricted to particular neurotrophic factors such as GDNF and BDNF.
