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

objectiveEpileptic spikes and seizures seem present early in the disease process of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, it is unclear how soluble and insoluble amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau proteins affect seizure development in vivo. We aim to contribute to this field by assessing the vulnerability to 6 Hz corneal kindling of young female mice from two well-characterized transgenic AD models and by testing their responsiveness to selected antiseizure drugs (ASDs).

methodsWe used 7-week-old triple transgenic (3xTg) mice that have both amyloid and tau mutations, and amyloid precursor protein Swedish/presenillin 1 dE9 (APP/PS1) mice, bearing only amyloid-related mutations. We assessed the absence of plaques via immunohistochemistry and analyzed the concentrations of both soluble and insoluble forms of Aβ

resultsNo Aβ plaques were present in either genotype. Soluble Aβ SIGNIFICANCE: Mutations increasing Aβ only or both Aβ and tau in the brain enhance susceptibility for seizures and kindling in mice. The effect of ASDs on seizures measured by the Racine scale is less pronounced in both investigated AD models and suggests that seizures of young AD mice are more difficult to treat.
