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 is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and has currently no effective treatment, one that would be able to stop or reverse the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. In addition, Parkinson's disease diagnosis is typically done when a significant percentage of the dopaminergic neurons is already lost. In neurodegenerative disorders, some therapeutic strategies could be effective only at inhibiting further degeneration; on the other hand, cell replacement therapies aim at replacing lost neurons, an approach that would be ideal for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Many cell replacement therapies have been tested since the 1970s in the field of Parkinson's disease; however, there are still significant limitations prohibiting a successful clinical application. From the first fetal midbrain intrastriatal graft to the most recent conversion of astrocytes into dopaminergic neurons, we have gained equally, significant insights and questions still looking for an answer. This review aims to summarize the main milestones in cell replacement approaches against Parkinson's disease. By focusing on achievements and failures, as well as on the additional research steps needed, we aim to provide perspective on how future cell replacement therapies treats Parkinson's disease.
