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

Although progressive neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been extensively studied for decades, some underlying mechanisms of pathogenesis remain elusive. In addition, modeling neurodegenerative diseases in vitro has proven to be a challenging task. However, advances in the technique of using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) have enabled the scientific community to study hiPSC-derived neurons, astrocytes, or microglia. Despite this important progress, monocultures of individual cell types may not accurately reflect the complexities of modeling specific pathological mechanisms. Therefore, we present a robust protocol for co-cultivating hiPSC-derived cortical neurons, astrocytes, and microglia in a tri-culture system for the purpose of hypothesis testing and drug screening. This co-cultivation system may allow modeling the effect of astrocyte and/or microglia modulation on neuronal health or intra-neuronal Tau aggregation, a key feature of AD progression.
