Utilizing mouse optic nerve crush to examine CNS remyelination.
Article in STAR protocols, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In developing pro-myelination treatment, an important hurdle is the lack of reliable animal models for assessing de novo myelination in disease settings. We recently showed that regenerated axons in injured optic nerves fail to be myelinated, providing an animal model for this purpose. Here, we describe procedures to promote axonal regeneration, administer optic nerve crush, and assess oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation into myelination-competent oligodendrocytes. This protocol allows for testing the efficacy of remyelination treatments in an
