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

backgroundProper migration of neurons is essential for the formation and normal functioning of the nervous system. Defects in neuronal migration underlie a number of neurologic diseases in humans. Although cell migration is crucial for neural development, molecular mechanisms guiding neuronal migration remain to be elucidated fully. Newborn neurons from the embryonic medial ganglionic eminence (MGE) migrate a long distance dorsally in the developing brain, giving rise to several types of interneurons in the neocortex. NEW

methodIn this study, we developed an immunocytochemistry (ICC) protocol to stain neurons migrating out of the MGE explant embedded in Matrigel. We also established a protocol to efficiently transfect cells in MGE explants, achieving a transduction efficiency of more than 30%. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING

methodIn addition, we developed microfluidic chambers for explants that allow visualization of the vectorial migration of individual neurons from mouse embryonic MGE explants. Our microfluidic system allows monitoring of the distribution of cellular organelles (e.g. Golgi) within migrating neurons which have been stained with commercial molecular dyes or transfected with adeno-associated virus (AAV) expressing reporter proteins.

conclusionThese methods provide new paradigms to study neuronal migration in real-time.
