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

Notch receptor signaling is evolutionarily conserved and well known for its roles in animal development. Many studies in Drosophila have shown that Notch also performs important functions in memory formation in adult flies. An intriguing observation is that increased expression of the full-length Notch receptor (Nfull) triggers long-term memory (LTM) formation even after very weak training (single training). Canonical Notch signaling is mediated by Notch intracellular domain (NICD), but it is not known whether increased expression of NICD recapitulates the LTM enhancement induced by increased Nfull expression. Here, we report that increased NICD expression either has no impact on LTM formation or suppresses it. Furthermore, it either has no impact or decreases both the levels and activity of cAMP response element binding protein, a key factor supporting LTM. These results indicate that NICD signaling is not sufficient to explain Nfull-induced LTM enhancement. Our findings may also shed light on the molecular mechanisms of memory loss in neurological diseases associated with increased NICD expression and canonical Notch signaling.
