Exercise-induced neuroprotection in SMA model mice: a means for determining new therapeutic strategies.
Review in Molecular neurobiology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Due to the prevalence of neuromuscular disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and spinal muscular atrophy in modern societies, defining new and efficient strategies for the treatment of these two neurodegenerative diseases has become a vital and still unfulfilled urge. Several lines of experimental evidence have emphasized the benefits of regular exercise training in mouse models for these affections in terms of life span increase and improvement of both motor capacities and motoneuron survival. Identifying molecules that could mimic the neuroprotective effects of exercise represents a promising way to find novel therapies. Some of the effects of exercise are caused by the overproduction of circulating neurotrophic factors, such as IGF-I, whereas others may be due to modifications of the intrinsic properties of the motoneurons within the spinal cord. The causal relationship that links these potential effects of exercise training and the improvement of motor capacity and life span expectancy is consequently discussed.
