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

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are redox-signaling molecules involved in aging and lifestyle-related diseases. In the brain, in addition to the production of ROS as byproducts of metabolism, expression of ROS synthases has recently been demonstrated, suggesting possible involvement of ROS in various brain functions. This review highlights current knowledge on the relationship between ROS and brain functions, including their contribution to age-related decline in synaptic plasticity and cognitive function. While most studies demonstrate either the positive or negative effects of ROS on synaptic plasticity, the dual effects of ROS at individual synapses have been demonstrated recently in the mouse cerebellum. Furthermore, the cooperative interaction between these two effects determines the direction of synaptic plasticity. It is anticipated that further elucidation of both the positive and negative effects of ROS on brain function will lead to the development of more effective therapeutic strategies with fewer side effects for ROS-related brain dysfunction.
