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

Wnt signaling plays an essential role in developmental and regenerative myelination in the central nervous system. The Wnt signaling pathway is composed of multiple regulatory layers; thus, how these processes are coordinated to orchestrate oligodendrocyte (OL) development remains unclear. Here, we show CK2α, a Wnt/β-catenin signaling Ser/Thr kinase, phosphorylates Daam2, inhibiting its function and Wnt activity during OL development. Intriguingly, we found Daam2 phosphorylation differentially impacts distinct stages of OL development, accelerating early differentiation followed by decelerating maturation and myelination. Application toward white matter injury revealed CK2α-mediated Daam2 phosphorylation plays a protective role for developmental and behavioral recovery after neonatal hypoxia, while promoting myelin repair following adult demyelination. Together, our findings identify a unique regulatory node in the Wnt pathway that regulates OL development via protein phosphorylation-induced signaling complex instability and highlights a new biological mechanism for myelin restoration.
