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

Age-related long-term disability is attracting increasing attention due to the growing ageing population worldwide. However, the current understanding of the senescent spinal cord remains insufficient. Bulk RNA sequencing reveals that 526 genes are upregulated and 300 genes are downregulated in senescent spinal cords. Pathway enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes shows that senescence in spinal cords is related to phagosome function, neuroinflammation, ferroptosis, and necroptosis. Prediction of upstream transcription factors and interactome analysis identify Spi1 as a transcription factor that potentially plays a core role in senescent spinal cords. Spatial transcriptomics illustrates the spatial distribution of the transcriptomic landscape in both young and senescent spinal cords and identifies distinct neuronal and glial subtypes. The ferroptosis-associated gene Fth1 is upregulated in aged spinal cords. Flow cytometry reveals increased accumulation of free Fe
