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

During the development of mammalian brains, pyramidal neurons in the cerebral cortex form highly organized six layers with different functions. These neurons undergo developmental processes such as axon extension, dendrite outgrowth, and synapse formation. A proper integration of the neuronal connectivity through dynamic changes of dendritic branches and spines is required for learning and memory. Disruption of these crucial developmental processes is associated with many neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. To investigate the complex dendritic architecture, several useful staining tools and genetic methods to label neurons have been well established. Monitoring the dynamics of dendritic spine in a single neuron is still a challenging task. Here, we provide a methodology that combines in vivo two-photon brain imaging and in utero electroporation, which sparsely labels cortical neurons with fluorescent proteins. This protocol may help elucidate the dynamics of microstructure and neural complexity in living rodents under normal and disease conditions.
