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

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and degenerative disorder of the nervous system that can significantly reduce the physical activity of patients at the end stages. As the field of disease pathophysiology has advanced in recent years, studies have looked at the role of neuromuscular junction's dysfunctionality in ALS. In the past years, various in vitro and in vivo models were developed to scrutinize the underlying mechanisms of the disease and investigate the effects of candidate drugs, but the application of the developed models faced many challenges. Hence, the attentions shifted to cutting-edge technologies such as the organ-on-a-chip, which can mimic the pathophysiology of the disease as a special biological platform using patient-derived cells in the integration of engineering sciences to expand researchers' perspectives on the disease. In addition, organ-on-a-chip technology can reduce some of the challenges of using other in vitro and in vivo models, which can pave the way for other discoveries and advances in this disease.
