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

Spontaneous calcium activity of neural progenitors is largely dependent on a paracrine signaling mechanism involving release of ATP and activation of purinergic receptors. Although it is well documented that, in mature astrocytes, cytokines modulate the expression levels of certain purinergic receptors, nothing is known about their impact during early stages of development. Here we provide evidence that conditioned medium from activated microglia and interleukin-1beta, but not tumor necrosis factor-alpha, decrease the frequency of calcium oscillations and reduce the rate of in vitro migration of astrocyte progenitors. Such alterations were due to changes in activity of two purinergic P2 receptors, and not to the amount of released ATP. These results indicate that interleukin-1beta plays an important role during early stages of CNS development, modulating calcium signaling and cell migration.
