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

backgroundConsecutive adult neurogenesis is a well-known phenomenon in the ventricular-subventricular zone of the lateral wall of the lateral ventricles (V-SVZ) and has been controversially discussed in so-called "non-neurogenic" brain areas such as the periventricular regions (PVRs) of the aqueduct and the fourth ventricle. Dopamine is a known modulator of adult neural stem cell (aNSC) proliferation and dopaminergic neurogenesis in the olfactory bulb, though a possible interplay between local dopaminergic neurodegeneration and induction of aNSC proliferation in mid/hindbrain PVRs is currently enigmatic. OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS: To analyze the influence of chronic-progressive dopaminergic neurodegeneration on both consecutive adult neurogenesis in the PVRs of the V-SVZ and mid/hindbrain aNSCs in two mechanistically different transgenic animal models of Parkinson´s disease (PD).

methodsWe used Thy1-m[A30P]h α synuclein mice and Leu9'Ser hypersensitive α4* nAChR mice to assess the influence of midbrain dopaminergic neuronal loss on neurogenic activity in the PVRs of the V-SVZ, the aqueduct and the fourth ventricle.

resultsIn both animal models, overall proliferative activity in the V-SVZ was not altered, though the proportion of B2/activated B1 cells on all proliferating cells was reduced in the V-SVZ in Leu9'Ser hypersensitive α4* nAChR mice. Putative aNSCs in the mid/hindbrain PVRs are known to be quiescent in vivo in healthy controls, and dopaminergic deficiency did not induce proliferative activity in these regions in both disease models.

conclusionsOur data do not support an activation of endogenous aNSCs in mid/hindbrain PVRs after local dopaminergic neurodegeneration. Spontaneous endogenous regeneration of dopaminergic cell loss through resident aNSCs is therefore unlikely.
