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

Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a potent mediator of cell survival and differentiation and can reverse neuronal injury associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (trkB) is the high affinity receptor for BDNF. There are two major trkB isoforms, the full-length receptor (trkB.tk(+)) and the truncated receptor (trkB.t1), that mediate the diverse, region specific functions of BDNF. Both trkB isoforms are widely distributed throughout the brain, but the isoform specific distribution of trkB.t1 and trkB.tk(+) to human neurons is not well characterized. Therefore, we report the regional and neuronal distribution of trkB.tk(+) and trkB.t1 in the striatum and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of human autopsy tissues from control and PD cases. In both PD and control tissues, we found abundant, punctate distribution of trkB.tk(+) and trkB.t1 proteins in striatum and SNpc neurons. In PD, trkB.tk(+) is decreased in striatal neurites, increased in striatal somata, decreased in SNpc somata and dendrites, and increased in SNpc axons. TrkB.t1 is increased in striatal somata, decreased in striatal axons, and increased in SNpc distal dendrites. We believe changes in trkB isoform distribution and expression levels may be markers of pathology and affect the neuronal response to BDNF.
