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

backgroundNiemann-Pick disease type C1 (NPC1) is an autosomal-recessive lipid-storage disorder with an estimated minimal incidence of 1/120,000 live births. Besides other neuronal and visceral symptoms, NPC1 patients develop spleen dysfunction, isolated spleno- or hepatosplenomegaly and infections. The mechanisms of splenomegaly and alterations of lipid metabolism-related genes in NPC1 disease are still poorly understood.

methodsHere, we used an NPC1 mouse model to study a splenoprotective effect of a treatment with miglustat, 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin and allopregnanolone and showed that this treatment has a positive effect on spleen morphology and lipid metabolism.

resultsDisease progress can be halted and blocked at the molecular level. Mutant Npc1 (Npc1

conclusionsIn summary, the treatment promotes normal spleen morphology, stabilization of lipid homeostasis and blocking of inflammation, but alters the composition of T cell subtypes.
