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

Impaired lipid metabolism is a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and can shift the physiological α-synuclein (αS) tetramer-monomer (T:M) ratio toward aggregation prone monomers. A resultant increase in phospho-serine 129+ αS monomers associating with excess mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids contributes to the αS aggregation. We previously reported that decreasing the release of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) by reducing or inhibiting the hormone sensitive lipase (LIPE) reversed pathologic αS phosphorylation and improved soluble αS homeostasis in cultured αS triplication PD neurons and reduced DAergic neurodegeneration in a C.elegans αS model. However, assessing LIPE as a potential therapeutic target for progressive PD motor phenotypes has not been investigated. 3K αS mice, representing a biochemical and neuropathological amplification of the E46K fPD-causing mutation, have decreased αS T:M ratios, lipidic aggregates, and a L-DOPA responsive PD-like motor syndrome. Here, we reduced LIPE by crossings of 3K mice with LIPE null mice, which attenuated motor deficits in male LIPE
