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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible, neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by memory impairment and executive dysfunction. However, the change of fine structure of neuronal morphology remains unclear in the AD model mouse. In this study, high-resolution mouse brain sectional images were scanned by Micro-Optical Sectioning Tomography (MOST) technology and reconstructed three-dimensionally to obtain the pyramidal neurons. The method of Sholl analysis was performed to analyze the neurons in the brains of 6- and 12-month-old AD mice. The results showed that dendritic complexity was not affected in the entorhinal cortex between 6-month-old mice and 12-month-old mice. The dendritic complexity had increased in the primary motor cortex and CA1 region of hippocampus of 12- month-old mice compared with 6-month-old mice. On the contrary, dendritic complexity in the prefrontal cortex was decreased significantly between 6-month-old and 12-month-old mice. To our knowledge, this is the first study to provide high-resolution brain images of triple transgenic AD mice for statistically analyzing neuronal dendrite complexity by MOST technology to reveal the morphological changes of neurons during AD progression.
