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

Progranulin (PGRN), which is produced in neurons and microglia, is a neurotrophic and anti-inflammatory glycoprotein. Human loss-of-function mutations cause frontotemporal dementia, and PGRN knockout (KO) mice are a model for dementia. In addition, PGRN KO mice exhibit severe phenotypes in models of traumatic or ischemic central nervous system (CNS) disorders, including traumatic brain injury (TBI). It is unknown whether restoration of progranulin expression in neurons (and not in microglia) might be sufficient to prevent excessive TBI-evoked brain damage. To address this question, we generated mice with Nestin-Cre-driven murine PGRN expression in a PGRN KO line (PGRN-KO
