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

Glia-mediated inflammatory processes are crucial in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). As the most abundant cells of the brain and active participants in neuroinflammatory responses, astrocytes largely propagate inflammatory signals and amplify neuronal loss. Hence, intensive control of astrocytic activation is necessary to prevent neurodegeneration. In this study, we report that the astrocytic kir6.2, as a abnormal response after inflammatory stimuli, promotes the reactivity of A1 neurotoxic astrocytes. Using kir6.2 knockout (KO) mice, we find reversal effects of kir6.2 deficiency on A1-like astrocyte activation and death of dopaminergic neurons in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse models for PD.
