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

Mice deficient in acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC3.1.1.7) exhibited significant phenotypical and biochemical changes when compared with wild-type littermates. They showed a delay of growth in weight and size, immature external ears, and persistent body tremor, and they circled when walking. The molecular mechanisms underlying these changes have not been investigated yet. Here, we studied the profiles of both the messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression in the brain of AChE-deficient mice using mRNA microarray, quantitative PCR, and two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D DIGE) coupled to protein identification with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Analysis of gene expression profile was conducted by DAVID ( http://david.abcc.ncifcrf.gov ) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA, http://www.ingenuity.com ). Previous results implicated that there is a close relationship between lipid metabolisms which were associated with central nervous system development. Here, we demonstrated that the mRNA expressions of brain specific fatty acid protein 7 (fabp-7) and phospholipase A2 group IV (pla2g4) were significantly downregulated in AChE-deficient mice. These results suggested that AChE may play a role in neurogenesis and neurodegeneration by specifically regulating lipid metabolism in the brain.
