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

PlexinA is a neuronal receptor protein that facilitates axon guidance during embryogenesis. This gene is associated with several neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and autism. However, the effect of variants of PlexinA on brain structure remains unclear. We demonstrate that single-nucleotide polymorphisms within the intron and 3'-untranslated region segments of several human PlexinA genes alter the post-natal developmental trajectory of corpus callosum microstructure. This is the first demonstration that PLXNA mediation of neuroanatomical traits can be detected in humans using in vivo neuroimaging techniques. This result should encourage future research that targets specific disease-related polymorphisms and their relevant neural pathways.
