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

backgroundSchizophrenia is a common psychiatric disease with high hereditary. The identification of schizophrenia risk genes (SRG) has shed light on its pathophysiological mechanisms. Mouse genetic models have been widely used to study the function of SRG in the brain with a cell type specific fashion. However, whether the cellular expression pattern of SRG is conserved between human and mouse brain is not thoroughly studied.

resultsWe analyzed the single-cell transcription of 180 SRG from human and mouse primary visual cortex (V1). We compared the percentage of glutamatergic, GABAergic and non-neuronal cells that express each SRG between mouse and human V1 cortex. Thirty percent (54/180) of SRG had significantly different expression rate in glutamatergic neurons between mouse and human V1 cortex. By contrast, only 5.6% (10/180) of SRG showed significantly different expression in GABAergic neurons, which is similar with the ratio of SRG (15/180) with species difference in total cell populations. Strikingly, the percentage of non-neuronal cells expressing all SRG are indistinguishable between human and mouse V1 cortex. We further analyzed the biological significance of differentially expressed SRG by gene ontology. The species-different SRG in glutamatergic neurons are highly expressed in dendrite and axon. They are enriched in the biological process of response to stimulus. However, the differentially expressed SRG in GABAergic neurons are enriched in the regulation of organelle organization.

conclusionGABAergic neurons are more conserved in the expression of SRG than glutamatergic neurons while the non-neuronal cells show the species conservation for the expression of all SRG. It should be cautious to use mouse models to study those SRG which show different cellular expression pattern between human and mouse cortex.
