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

Over 130 brain diseases are caused by mutations that disrupt genes encoding the proteome of excitatory synapses. These include neurological and psychiatric disorders with early and late onset such as autism, schizophrenia and depression and many other rarer conditions. The proteome of synapses is highly complex with over 1000 conserved proteins which are differentially expressed generating a vast, potentially unlimited, number of synapse types. The diversity of synapses and their location in the brain are described by the synaptome. A recent study has mapped the synaptome across the mouse brain, revealing that synapse diversity is distributed into an anatomical architecture observed at scales from individual dendrites to the whole systems level. The synaptome architecture is built from the hierarchical expression and assembly of proteins into complexes and supercomplexes which are distributed into different synapses. Mutations in synapse proteins change the synaptome architecture leading to behavioral phenotypes. Mutations in the mechanisms regulating the hierarchical assembly of the synaptome, including transcription and proteostasis, may also change synapse diversity and synaptome architecture. The logic of synaptome hierarchical assembly provides a mechanistic framework that explains how diverse genetic disorders can converge on synapses in different brain circuits to produce behavioral phenotypes.
