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

Cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions are necessary for neuronal patterning and brain wiring during development. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes capable of remodelling the pericellular environment and regulating signaling pathways through cleavage of a large degradome. MMPs have been suggested to affect cerebellar development, but the specific role of different MMPs in cerebellar morphogenesis remains unclear. Here, we report a role for MMP-3 in the histogenesis of the mouse cerebellar cortex. MMP-3 expression peaks during the second week of postnatal cerebellar development and is most prominently observed in Purkinje cells (PCs). In MMP-3 deficient (MMP-3(-/-)) mice, a protracted granule cell (GC) tangential migration and a delayed GC radial migration results in a thicker and persistent external granular layer, a retarded arrival of GCs in the inner granular layer, and a delayed GABAergic interneuron migration. Importantly, these neuronal migration anomalies, as well as the consequent disturbed synaptogenesis on PCs, seem to be caused by an abnormal PC dendritogenesis, which results in reduced PC dendritic trees in the adult cerebellum. Of note, these developmental and adult cerebellar defects might contribute to the aberrant motor phenotype observed in MMP-3(-/-) mice and suggest an involvement of MMP-3 in mouse cerebellar development.
