Elevated levels of tripeptidyl peptidase 1 do not ameliorate pathogenesis in a mouse model of Alzheimer disease.
Article in Neurobiology of aging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
One potential therapeutic strategy for Alzheimer disease (AD) is to promote degradation of amyloid beta (Aβ) and we previously demonstrated that the lysosomal protease tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP1) can degrade Aβ fibrils in vitro. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that increasing levels of TPP1 might promote degradation of Aβ under physiological conditions, slowing or preventing its accumulation in the brain with subsequent therapeutic benefits. We used 2 approaches to increase TPP1 activity in the brain of J20 mice, an AD model that accumulates Aβ and exhibits cognitive defects: transgenic overexpression of TPP1 in the brain and a pharmacological approach employing administration of recombinant TPP1. While we clearly observed the expected AD phenotype of the J20 mice based on pathology and measurement of behavioral and cognitive defects, we found that elevation of TPP1 activity by either experimental approach failed to have any measurable beneficial effect on disease phenotype.
