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

The active transport of organelles and other cargos along the axon is required to maintain neuronal health and function, but we are just beginning to understand the complex regulatory mechanisms involved. The molecular motors, cytoplasmic dynein and kinesins, transport cargos along microtubules; this transport is tightly regulated by adaptors and effectors. Here we review our current understanding of motor regulation in axonal transport. We discuss the mechanisms by which regulatory proteins induce or repress the activity of dynein or kinesin motors, and explore how this regulation plays out during organelle trafficking in the axon, where motor activity is both cargo specific and dependent on subaxonal location. We survey several well-characterized examples of membranous organelles subject to axonal transport - including autophagosomes, endolysosomes, signalling endosomes, mitochondria and synaptic vesicle precursors - and highlight the specific mechanisms that regulate motor activity to provide localized trafficking within the neuron. Defects in axonal transport have been implicated in conditions ranging from developmental defects in the brain to neurodegenerative disease. Better understanding of the underlying mechanisms will be essential to develop more-effective treatment options.
