Expression of BACE1 in the Rat Carotid Body.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
This study explored the expression of BACE1 (β-amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1) in the rat carotid body and the effect of CIH (cyclic intermittent hypoxia) on the expression of BACE1. We found that BACE1 was expressed in the rat carotid body and located in the nerve endings and type II cells but not in type I cells. CIH reduced BACE1 level in the carotid body, and reoxygenation or ROS scavenger alleviated this reduction. Furthermore, we found that CIH augmented the mRNA level of PGC-1α but attenuated the mRNA level of BACE1 in the carotid body. Taken together, our results suggest that CIH promotes the production of ROS that upregulates the level of PGC-1α, which may in turn inhibits the transcription of BACE1, and that a reduction in the BACE1 level may be related to CIH-induced reversible and ROS-dependent carotid body plasticity. Our study provides a new candidate molecule for further study of the mechanism of carotid body plasticity.
