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

The primate cerebrum is characterized by a large expansion of cortical surface area, the formation of convolutions, and extraordinarily voluminous subcortical white matter. It was recently proposed that this expansion is primarily driven by increased production of superficial neurons in the dramatically enlarged outer subventricular zone (oSVZ). Here, we examined the development of the parietal cerebrum in macaque monkey and found that, indeed, the oSVZ initially adds neurons to the superficial layers II and III, increasing their thickness. However, as the oSVZ grows in size, its output changes to production of astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, which in primates outnumber cerebral neurons by a factor of three. After the completion of neurogenesis around embryonic day (E) 90, when the cerebrum is still lissencephalic, the oSVZ enlarges and contains Pax6
