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
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that causes degeneration of motor neurons (MNs) and paralysis. ALS can be caused by mutations in the gene that encodes copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1). SOD1 is known mostly as a cytosolic antioxidant protein, but SOD1 is also in the nucleus of non-transgenic (tg) and human SOD1 (hSOD1) tg mouse MNs. SOD1's nuclear presence in different cell types and subnuclear compartmentations are unknown, as are the nuclear functions of SOD1. We examined hSOD1 nuclear localization and DNA damage in tg mice expressing mutated and wildtype variants of hSOD1 (hSOD1-G93A and hSOD1-wildtype). We also studied ALS patient-derived induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to determine the nuclear presence of SOD1 in undifferentiated and differentiated MNs. In hSOD1-G93A and hSOD1-wildtype tg mice, choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)-positive MNs had nuclear hSOD1, but while hSOD1-wildtype mouse MNs also had nuclear ChAT, hSOD1-G93A mouse MNs showed symptom-related loss of nuclear ChAT. The interneurons had preserved parvalbumin nuclear positivity in hSOD1-G93A mice. hSOD1-G93A was seen less commonly in spinal cord astrocytes and, notably, oligodendrocytes, but as the disease emerged, the oligodendrocytes had increased mutant hSOD1 nuclear presence. Brain and spinal cord subcellular fractionation identified mutant hSOD1 in soluble nuclear extracts of the brain and spinal cord, but mutant hSOD1 was concentrated in the chromatin nuclear extract only in the spinal cord. Nuclear extracts from mutant hSOD1 tg mouse spinal cords had altered protein nitration, footprinting peroxynitrite presence, and the intact nuclear extracts had strongly increased superoxide production as well as the active NADPH oxidase marker, p47phox. The comet assay showed that MNs from hSOD1-G93A mice progressively (6-14 weeks of age) accumulated DNA single-strand breaks. Ablation of the
