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

Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative movement disorders which is characterised neuropathologically by progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and the presence of Lewy bodies (made predominately of α-synuclein) in the surviving neurons. Animal models of PD have improved our understanding of the disease and have played a critical role in the development of neuroprotective agents. Neuroinflammation has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of PD, and recent studies have used lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of gram-negative bacteria and a potent activator of microglia cells, to mimic the inflammatory events in clinical PD. Modulating the inflammatory response could ameliorate PD associated complications and thus, it is essential to understand the extent to which LPS models reflect human PD. This review will outline the routes of administration of LPS such as stereotaxic, systemic and intranasal, their ability to recapitulate neuropathological markers of PD, and mechanisms of LPS induced toxicity. We will also discuss the ability of the models to replicate motor symptoms and non-motor symptoms of PD such as gastrointestinal dysfunction, olfactory dysfunction, anxiety, depression and cognitive dysfunction.
