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

This mini-review aims to summarize a growing body of literature on synaptojanin 1 (Synj1), a phosphoinositide phosphatase that was initially known to have a prominent role in synaptic vesicle recycling. Synj1 is coded by the SYNJ1 gene, whose mutations and variants are associated with an increasing number of neurological disorders. To better understand the mechanistic role of Synj1 in disease pathogenesis, we review details of phosphoinositide signaling pathways and the reported involvement of Synj1 in membrane trafficking with a specific focus on Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent studies have tremendously advanced our understanding of Synj1 protein structure and function while broadening our view of how Synj1 regulates synaptic membrane trafficking and endosomal trafficking in various organisms and cell types. A growing body of evidence points to inefficient membrane trafficking as key pathogenic mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases associated with abnormal Synj1 expression. Despite significant progress made in the field, the mechanism by which Synj1 connects to trafficking, signaling, and pathogenesis is lacking and remains to be addressed.
