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

Using genetic tools to study the functional roles of molecularly specified neuronal populations in the primate brain is challenging, primarily because of specificity and verification of virus-mediated targeting. Here, we report a lentivirus-based system that helps improve specificity and verification by (a) targeting a selected molecular mechanism, (b) in vivo reporting of expression, and (c) allowing the option to independently silence all regional neural activity. Specifically, we modulate cholinergic signaling of striatal interneurons by shRNAmir and pair it with hM4Di_CFP, a chemogenetic receptor that can function as an in vivo and in situ reporter. Quantitative analyses by visual and deep-learning assisted methods show an inverse linear relation between hM4Di_CFP and ChAT protein expression for several shRNAmir constructs. This approach successfully applies shRNAmir to modulating gene expression in the primate brain and shows that hM4Di_CFP can act as a readout for this modulation.
