Astroglial tau pathology alone preferentially concentrates at sulcal depths in chronic traumatic encephalopathy neuropathologic change.

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
Current diagnostic criteria for the neuropathological evaluation of the traumatic brain injury-associated neurodegeneration, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, define the pathognomonic lesion as hyperphosphorylated tau-immunoreactive neuronal and astroglial profiles in a patchy cortical distribution, clustered around small vessels and showing preferential localization to the depths of sulci. However, despite adoption into diagnostic criteria, there has been no formal assessment of the cortical distribution of the specific cellular components defining chronic traumatic encephalopathy neuropathologic change. To address this, we performed comprehensive mapping of hyperphosphorylated tau-immunoreactive neurofibrillary tangles and thorn-shaped astrocytes contributing to chronic traumatic encephalopathy neuropathologic change. From the Glasgow Traumatic Brain Injury Archive and the University of Pennsylvania Center for Neurodegenerative Disease Research Brain Bank, material was selected from patients with known chronic traumatic encephalopathy neuropathologic change, either following exposure to repetitive mild (athletes
