Pentosan Polysulfate Treatment of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIA Mice.
Article in JIMD reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
Overall Goal: This study was designed to evaluate the impact of pentosan polysulfate (PPS) treatment on mice with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type IIIA (Sanfilippo A syndrome; OMIM 252900). Protocol: Three groups of MPS IIIA mice were evaluated: 1-week-old mice treated with subcutaneous (subQ) PPS at 25 mg/kg once weekly for 31 weeks (group 1); 5-month-old mice treated with subQ PPS once weekly at 50 mg/kg for 12 weeks (group 2); and 5-week-old mice treated by continual intracerebroventricular (ICV) PPS infusion for 11 weeks (60 μg/kg/day). Treated MPS IIIA mice and controls were assessed by measuring plasma cytokine levels, histologic analyses of systemic organs, and analyses of various neuroinflammatory, neurodegenerative, and lysosomal disease markers in their brains. Neurobehavioral testing also was carried out. Results: As seen in other MPS animal models, subQ PPS treatment reduced plasma cytokine levels and macrophage infiltration in systemic tissues. ICV administration did not elicit these systemic effects. SubQ PPS administration also significantly impacted brain neuropathology, inflammation, and behavior. The effect of early subQ treatment was more significant than dose. Surprisingly, ICV PPS treatment had intermediate effects on most of these brain markers, perhaps due to the limited dose and/or duration of treatment. Consistent with these neuropathological findings, we also observed significant improvements in the hyperactivity/anxiety and learning behaviors of the MPS IIIA mice treated with early subQ PPS.
