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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major neurodegenerative disorder that courses with chronic neuroinflammation. Pleiotrophin (PTN) is an endogenous inhibitor of Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ which is upregulated in different neuroinflammatory disorders of diverse origin, including AD. To investigate the role of RPTPβ/ζ in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration, we used eight-to ten-month-old APP/PS1 AD mouse model. They were administered intragastrically with MY10, an inhibitor of RPTPβ/ζ, at different doses (60 and 90 mg/kg) every day for 14 days. Treatment with 90 mg/kg MY10 significantly reduced the number and size of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques in the dorsal subiculum of the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice. In addition, we observed a significant decrease in the number and size of astrocytes in both sexes and in the number of microglial cells in a sex-dependent manner. This suggests that RPTPβ/ζ plays an important role in modulating Aβ plaque formation and influences glial responses, which may contribute to improved Aβ clearance. In addition, MY10 treatment decreased the interaction of glial cells with Aβ plaques in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice. Furthermore, the analysis of proinflammatory markers in the hippocampus revealed that MY10 treatment decreased the mRNA levels of
