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

CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder (CDD) is a severe encephalopathy characterized by intractable epilepsy, infantile spasms, and cognitive disabilities. The detrimental CNS manifestations and lack of therapeutic interventions represent unmet needs, necessitating identification of CDD-dependent phenotypes for in vitro disease modeling and therapeutic testing. Here, we optimized a high-content assay to quantify cilia in CDKL5-deficient neurons. Our work shows that Cdkl5-knockdown neurons have elongated cilia and uncovers cilium lengthening in hippocampi of Cdkl5 knockout mice. Collectively, our findings identify cilia length alterations under CDKL5 activity loss in vitro and in vivo and reveal elongated cilia as a robust functional phenotype for CDD.
