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

Microglial cells clear the brain of pathogens and harmful debris, including amyloid-β (Aβ) deposits that are formed during Alzheimer's disease (AD). We studied the expression of Msr1, Ager and Cd36 receptors involved in Aβ uptake and expression of Cd33 protein, which is considered a risk factor in AD. The effect of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTeQDs) on the expression of the above receptors and Aβ uptake by microglial cells was investigated. Absorption of Aβ and NPs was confirmed by confocal microscopy. AgNPs, but not CdTeQDs, caused a decrease in Aβ accumulation. By using a specific inhibitor-polyinosinic acid-we demonstrated that Aβ and AgNPs compete for scavenger receptors. Real-time PCR showed up-regulation of
