Orexinergic System in Neurodegenerative Diseases.
Review in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Orexinergic system consisting of orexins and orexin receptors plays an essential role in regulating sleep-wake states, whereas sleep disruption is a common symptom of a number of neurodegenerative diseases. Emerging evidence reveals that the orexinergic system is disturbed in various neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and multiple sclerosis (MS), whereas the dysregulation of orexins and/or orexin receptors contributes to the pathogenesis of these diseases. In this review, we summarized advanced knowledge of the orexinergic system and its role in sleep, and reviewed the dysregulation of the orexinergic system and its role in the pathogenesis of AD, PD, HD, and MS. Moreover, the therapeutic potential of targeting the orexinergic system for the treatment of these diseases was discussed.
