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

backgroundFragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome is a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder that affects about 40% of carriers of CGG-repeat expansions in the premutation range within the fragile X gene (

methodsWe standardized immunocytochemistry, immunoprecipitation and western blot procedures to study and biochemically characterize the FMRpolyG protein in fibroblasts from human skin biopsy.

resultsWe demonstrate for the first time, in fibroblasts from a patient affected by Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome, the presence ex vivo of inclusions consisting of FMRpolyG- Hsp70 soluble aggregates.

conclusionThese observations can pave the way to develop a cellular model for studying ex vivo and in vitro the mechanisms involved in the production of FMRpolyG aggregates, their toxicity, and the role of the FMRpolyG-Hsp70 interaction in the pathogenesis of fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome.
