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

Proteinaceous α-synuclein-containing inclusions are found in affected brain regions in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These appear in neurons as Lewy bodies in both PD and DLB and as glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs) in oligodendrocytes in MSA. The role they play in the pathology of the diseases is unknown, and relatively little is still known about their composition. By purifying the inclusions from the surrounding tissue and comprehensively analysing their protein composition, vital clues to the formation mechanism and role in the disease process may be found. In this study, Lewy bodies were purified from postmortem brain tissue from DLB cases (n = 2) and GCIs were purified from MSA cases (n = 5) using a recently improved purification method, and the purified inclusions were analysed by mass spectrometry. Twenty-one percent of the proteins found consistently in the GCIs and LBs were synaptic-vesicle related. Identified proteins included those associated with exosomes (CD9), clathrin-mediated endocytosis (clathrin, AP-2 complex, dynamin), retrograde transport (dynein, dynactin, spectrin) and synaptic vesicle fusion (synaptosomal-associated protein 25, vesicle-associated membrane protein 2, syntaxin-1). This suggests that the misfolded or excess α-synuclein may be targeted to inclusions via vesicle-mediated transport, which also explains the presence of the neuronal protein α-synuclein within GCIs.
