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 amyloid-beta precursor protein (AbetaPP) is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane protein whose cleavage product, the amyloid-beta (Abeta) protein, is deposited in amyloid plaques in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer disease, Down syndrome, and head injury. We recently reported that this protein, normally associated with neurodegenerative conditions, is expressed by human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We now report that the differential processing of AbetaPP via secretase enzymes regulates the proliferation and differentiation of hESCs. hESCs endogenously produce amyloid-beta, which when added exogenously in soluble and fibrillar forms but not oligomeric forms markedly increased hESC proliferation. The inhibition of AbetaPP cleavage by beta-secretase inhibitors significantly suppressed hESC proliferation and promoted nestin expression, an early marker of neural precursor cell (NPC) formation. The induction of NPC differentiation via the non-amyloidogenic pathway was confirmed by the addition of secreted AbetaPPalpha, which suppressed hESC proliferation and promoted the formation of NPCs. Together these data suggest that differential processing of AbetaPP is normally required for embryonic neurogenesis.
