Analyses of Genetic Regulation of the Nervous System in the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
Review in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This chapter aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the methodologies available to dissect genetic regulation of the nervous systems in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. These techniques encompass genetic screens and genetic tools to unravel the spatial-temporal contribution of genes on neural structure and function. Unbiased genetic screens on random mutations induced by ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) or target gene silencing by genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) help progress our understanding of the genetic control of neural development and functions. Complement to unbiased genetic approaches, gene- and protein-targeted manipulation by Cre/LoxP recombination system and auxin-inducible degron (AID) protein degradation system, respectively, helps identify tissues/cells and the time window critical for gene and protein function during the proper execution of a particular behavior. Considering the remarkable conservation of genetic pathways between C. elegans and mammalian systems, elucidating the genetic underpinnings of neural functions and learning behaviors in C. elegans may furnish invaluable insights into analogous processes in more complex organisms. As shown in the following chapter, leveraging these diverse methodologies enable researchers to elucidate the intricate network governing neural function and structure, laying the foundation for innovating strategies to ameliorate cognitive alterations.
