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

Neuroglycan C (NGC) is a transmembrane-type chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan that promotes neurite outgrowth. To identify the ligand of NGC, we applied a detergent-solubilized membrane fraction of fetal rat brains to an NGC-immobilized affinity column. Several proteins were eluted from the column including an 18 kDa-band protein recognized by an anti-pleiotrophin antibody. The binding of pleiotrophin (PTN) to NGC was confirmed by a quartz crystal microbalance method and had a Kd of 8.7 nM. PTN bound to the acidic amino acid cluster of the NGC extracellular domain. In addition, PTN bound to both chondroitin sulfate-bearing NGC and chondroitinase-treated NGC prepared from the neonatal rat brain. These results suggest that NGC interacts with PTN.
