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

Polyamines (PAs) in the nervous system has a key role in regeneration and aging. Therefore, we investigated age-related changes in the expression of PA spermidine (SPD) in the rat retina. Fluorescent immunocytochemistry was used to evaluate the accumulation of SPD in retinae from rats of postnatal days 3, 21, and 120. Glial cells were identified using glutamine synthetase (GS), whereas DAPI, a marker of cell nuclei, was used to differentiate between retinal layers. SPD localization in the retina was strikingly different between neonates and adults. In the neonatal retina (postnatal day 3-P3), SPD is strongly expressed in practically all cell types, including radial glia and neurons. SPD staining showed strong co-localization with the glial marker GS in Müller Cells (MCs) in the outer neuroblast layer. In the weaning period (postnatal day 21-P21), the SPD label was strongly expressed in all MCs, but not in neurons. In early adulthood (postnatal day 120-P120), SPD was localized in MCs only and was co-localized with the glial marker GS. A decline in the expression of PAs in neurons was observed with age while glial cells accumulated SPD after the differentiation stage (P21) and during aging in MC cellular endfoot compartments.
