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

Down syndrome (DS) arises from triplication of genes on human chromosome 21 and is associated with anomalies in brain development such as reduced production of neurons and increased generation of astrocytes. Here, we show that differentiation of cortical progenitor cells into astrocytes is promoted by DYRK1A, a Ser/Thr kinase encoded on human chromosome 21. In the Ts1Cje mouse model of DS, increased dosage of DYRK1A augments the propensity of progenitors to differentiate into astrocytes. This tendency is associated with enhanced astrogliogenesis in the developing neocortex. We also find that overexpression of DYRK1A upregulates the activity of the astrogliogenic transcription factor STAT in wild-type progenitors. Ts1Cje progenitors exhibit elevated STAT activity, and depletion of DYRK1A in these cells reverses the deregulation of STAT. In sum, our findings indicate that potentiation of the DYRK1A-STAT pathway in progenitors contributes to aberrant astrogliogenesis in DS.
