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

Oligodendrocytes produce multi-lamellar myelin membranes that surround axons in the central nervous system (CNS). Preservation and generation of myelin are potential therapeutic targets for dysmyelinating and demyelinating diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a vital role in oligodendrocyte differentiation and overall CNS development. miR-124 is a well-conserved neuronal miRNA with important roles in neuronal differentiation and function. miR-124 levels increase following loss of myelin in both human and rodent brains. While the role of neuronal miR-124 in neurogenesis has been established, its effects on axonal outgrowth and oligodendrocytes are not currently known. We therefore explored the possible effect of selective knockdown of miR-124 in Danio rerio using a morpholino-based knockdown approach. No morphological abnormalities or loss of motor neurons were detected despite loss of axonal outgrowth. Morpholino-based knockdown of miR-124 led to reciprocal increases in mRNA levels of target genes that inhibit axonal and dendritic projections. Importantly, loss of miR-124 led to decreased oligodendrocyte cell numbers and myelination of axonal projections in the ventral hindbrain. Taken together, our results add a new dimension to the existing complexity of neuron-glial relationships and highlight the utility of Danio rerio as a model system to investigate such interactions.
