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

A systems approach was developed and implemented to simulate and analyze motor-assisted axonal transport in nervous system. The methodology employs a Galerkin based linear finite element solver of a system of three coupled partial differential equations governing axonal diffusion-reaction-advection with an efficient optimization algorithm and an experimental time-space series to extract physio-chemical and biological information from experiments and to analyze the dynamics of molecular motor protein-assisted axonal transport. Our simulations were successfully applied and compared to a synthetic dataset based on measured motility parameters as well as experimental data of microtubule-associated protein MAP1A transport in mouse retinal ganglion cells (Nixon et al. 1990) and light neurofilament subunit transport within the optic nerve (Jung and Shea 1999). Parameter sensitivity analysis was performed to quantify the dependence of the dynamics of axonal transport on model parameters. Based on sensitivity analysis, we recommend a sampling strategy for future experiments that would produce the most sensitive and informative data. Our synergistic approach has excellent potential for efficiently probing our understanding of mechanisms of motor-mediated axonal transport in the nervous system.
