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 a wide loss of synapses and dendritic spines. Despite extensive efforts, the molecular mechanisms driving this detrimental alteration have not yet been determined. Among the factors potentially mediating this loss of neuronal connectivity, the contribution of Rho GTPases is of particular interest. This family of proteins is classically considered a key regulator of actin cytoskeleton remodeling and dendritic spine maintenance, but new insights into the complex dynamics of its regulation have recently determined how its signaling cascade is still largely unknown, both in physiological and pathological conditions. Here, we review the growing evidence supporting the potential involvement of Rho GTPases in spine loss, which is a unanimously recognized hallmark of early AD pathogenesis. We also discuss some new insights into Rho GTPase signaling framework that might explain several controversial results that have been published. The study of the connection between AD and Rho GTPases represents a quite unchartered avenue that holds therapeutic potential.
