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

Successful culturing of neurons from adult animals has been historically difficult for a relatively long time. In this study, we reported the development of a novel method for the isolation and the culture of major pelvic ganglion (MPG) neurons from adult rat. The cultured cells were identified by neuron morphology and staining with neuronal marker (neurofilament-200, NF-200). The results demonstrate that the new protocol we used was reliable in obtaining a relatively high yield of MPG neurons. Furthermore, it improves the speed and simplicity in neuronal isolation. The viability of neurons can be maintained for about 2 weeks, which should be sufficient for investigating physiological and pathological processes occurring in mature major pelvic ganglia. And this may provide a useful assessment to currently available techniques for the culture of adult neurons.
