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

Subpopulations of neurons display increased activity during memory encoding and manipulating the activity of these neurons can induce artificial formation or erasure of memories. Thus, these neurons are thought to be cellular engrams. Moreover, correlated activity between pre- and postsynaptic engram neurons is thought to lead to strengthening of their synaptic connections, thus increasing the probability of neural activity patterns occurring during encoding to reoccur at recall. Therefore, synapses between engram neurons can also be considered as a substrate of memory, or a synaptic engram. One can label synaptic engrams by targeting two complementary, non-fluorescent, synapse-targeted GFP fragments separately to the pre- and postsynaptic compartment of engram neurons; the two GFP fragments reconstitute a fluorescent GFP at the synaptic cleft between the engram neurons, thereby highlighting synaptic engrams. In this work we explored a transsynaptic GFP reconstitution system (mGRASP) to label synaptic engrams between hippocampal CA1 and CA3 engram neurons identified by different Immediate-Early Genes:
