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 claustrum is a subcortical nucleus, found in the telencephalon of all placental mammals. Earlier Golgi studies have mostly focused on a qualitative description of the types of neurons. The aim of the present study was to describe the types of neurons found in the dorsal claustrum of the cat using the Golgi impregnation method and to perform a quantitative analysis of the following morphometric parameters: number of terminals (ends), total dendritic length, dendritic complexity, spine density (in spiny projection neurons), varicosity density (in aspiny interneurons). We used specimens from 5 healthy male cats stained according to the Golgi-Cox method. The dendritic trees of the studied neurons were then reconstructed through the Neurolucida software. Values of the studied quantitative parameters were obtained automatically and tested for statistically significant differences. Five types of spiny neurons were observed-large, medium-sized and small multipolar, bipolar and pyramidal-like. In addition, we described three types of aspiny neurons. The quantitative values and the statistical analysis were presented with tables and diagrams. In conclusion, we have presented a detailed analysis of the cytoarchitecture of the DC of the cat and have reported the first quantitative data on a number of morphometric parameters.
