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

Spontaneous oscillations in the mid-brain dopaminergic neurons are an important feature of motor control. The degeneration of these neurons is involved in movement disorders, particularly Parkinson's Disease. Modelling of this activity is an important part of developing an understanding of the pathogenic process. We develop a mathematical paradigm to describe this activity with a single compartment approach and a CellML version is made publicly available. The model explicitly describes the dynamics of the transmembrane potential with changes in the levels of important cations and is consistent with two major observations in the literature regarding its behaviour in the presence of channel blockers. Stability of the model behaviour is determined from the properties of its Monodromy matrix. We also discuss from the perspective of energy, a pharmacological intervention suggested in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease.
