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

Neurofilaments, which are the intermediate filaments of nerve cells, are space-filling cytoskeletal polymers that contribute to the growth of axonal caliber. In addition to their structural role, neurofilaments are cargos of axonal transport that move along microtubule tracks in a rapid, intermittent, and bidirectional manner. Though they measure just 10nm in diameter, which is well below the diffraction limit of optical microscopes, these polymers can reach 100 μm or more in length and are often packed densely, just tens of nanometers apart. These properties of neurofilaments present unique challenges for studies on their movement. In this article, we describe several live-cell fluorescence imaging strategies that we have developed to image neurofilament transport in axons of cultured neurons on short and long timescales. Together, these methods form a powerful set of complementary tools with which to study the axonal transport of these unique intracellular cargos.
