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

Assembly and deposition of amyloid ß-protein (Aß) is an invariable and fundamental event in the pathological process of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To decipher the AD pathogenesis and also to develop disease-modifying drugs for AD, clarification of the molecular mechanism underlying the Aß assembly into amyloid fibrils in the brain has been a crucial issue. GM1-ganglioside-bound Aß (GAß), with unique molecular characteristics such as having an altered conformation and the capability to accelerate Aß assembly, was discovered in an autopsied brain showing early pathological changes of AD in 1995. On the basis of these findings, it was hypothesized that GAß is an endogenous seed for amyloid fibril formation in the AD brain. A body of evidence that supports this GAß hypothesis has been growing over this past 20 years. In this article, seminal GAß studies that have been carried out to date, including recent ones using unique animal models, are reviewed.
