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

Genetic and chemically induced neuronopathic mouse models of Gaucher disease were developed to facilitate understanding of the reversibility and/or progression of CNS involvement. The lethality of the skin permeability barrier defect of the complete gene knock out [gba, (glucocerebrosidase) GCase] was avoided by conditional reactivation of a low activity allele (D409H) in keratinocytes (kn-9H). In kn-9H mice, progressive CNS disease and massive glucosylceramide storage in tissues led to death from CNS involvement by the age of 14 days. Conduritol B epoxide (CBE, a covalent inhibitor of GCase) treatment (for 8-12 days) of wild type, D409H, D409V or V394L homozygotes recapitulated the CNS phenotype of the kn-9H mice with seizures, tail arching, shaking, tremor, quadriparesis, extensive neuronal degeneration loss and apoptosis, and death by the age of 14 days. Minor CNS abnormalities occurred after daily CBE injections of 100 mg/kg/day for 6 doses, but neuronal degeneration was progressive and glucosylceramide storage persisted in D409V homozygotes in the 2 to 5 months after CBE cessation; wild type and D409H mice had persistent neurological damage without progression. The persistent CNS deterioration, histologic abnormalities, and glucosylceramide storage in the CBE-treated D409V mice revealed a threshold level of GCase activity necessary for the prevention of progression of CNS involvement.
