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

Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is one of the second messengers critically involved in the molecular mechanisms underlying memory formation. In the CNS, the availability of cAMP is tightly controlled by phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), a family of enzymes that degrades the cyclic nucleotide to inactive AMP. Among the different PDE4 isoforms, in the last few years PDE4D has been hogging the limelight due to accumulating evidence for its crucial role in cognitive processes, which makes this enzyme a promising target for therapeutic interventions in a variety of pathological conditions characterized by memory impairment, such as Alzheimer's disease. In this article, we review the role of the cAMP signal transduction pathway in memory formation with a particular focus on the recent progress in PDE4D research.
