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
objectivesA positive allosteric modulator of the NMDAR, SGE-301, has been shown to reverse the alterations caused by the antibodies of patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis (NMDARe). However, the mechanisms involved beyond receptor modulation are unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate how this modulator affects NMDAR membrane dynamics.
methodsCultured hippocampal neurons were treated with SGE-301 or vehicle, alongside with immunoglobulins G (IgG) from patients with NMDARe or healthy controls. NMDAR surface dynamics were assessed with single-molecule imaging by photoactivated localization microscopy.
resultsNMDAR trajectories from neurons treated with SGE-301 were less confinement, with increased diffusion coefficients. This effect mainly occurred at synapses because extrasynaptic diffusion and confinement were minimally affected by SGE-301. Treatment with patients' IgG reduced NMDAR surface dynamics and increased their confinement. Remarkably, SGE-301 incubation antagonized patients' IgG effects in both synaptic and extrasynaptic membrane compartments, restoring diffusion and confinement values similar to those from neurons exposed to control IgG. DISCUSSION: We demonstrate that SGE-301 upregulates NMDAR surface diffusion and antagonizes the pathogenic effects of patients' IgG on NMDAR membrane organization. These findings suggest a potential therapeutic strategy for NMDARe.
