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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by deposition of beta-amyloid peptides (Aβ) and progressive loss of neurons. Neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) can proliferate and produce immature neurons even in the brain of AD patients. However, Aβ42 significantly decreased the expression of RhoC in NSPCs during the co-incubation (P < 0.01). Treating with RhoC siRNA prevented membrane from protrusion and led to a significant reduction in cell migration in responses to SDF-1. Compared with wild-type mice, the numbers of RhoC-immunoreactive cells in hippocampus and cortex were significantly down-regulated in APP/PS1 mice aged 9 months. The results suggest that Aβ42 down-regulates the expression of RhoC in NSPCs in vitro and in vivo; down-regulated RhoC expression results in decreased migration of NSPCs.
