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

Nuclear receptor-related factor 1 (Nurr1) has a crucial role in the development and maturation of mesencephalic dopamine (DA) neurons and also plays a protective role in maintenance of DA neurons by inhibiting the activation of microglia and astrocyte. Moreover, the mutations in Nurr1 gene are associated with familial Parkinson's disease (PD), suggested that Nurr1 modulation is a potential therapeutic target for PD. This study examines the therapeutic effects of transplantation of Nurr1 gene-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced PD rat models. MSCs were transduced with lentivirus expressing Nurr1 gene and then intrastriatally transplanted into PD rats. Our results showed that Nurr1 gene-modified MSCs overexpress and secrete Nurr1 protein
