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

objectivesTo investigate gene expression dynamics in adult primate neocortex and elucidate the molecular basis of these capabilities.

methodsWhole-cell transcriptome data from primary visual cortex (V1) of cynomolgus monkeys were analyzed, focusing on inhibitory neurons derived from the medial ganglionic eminence. Using RNA velocity and scVelo algorithms, we investigated subtle gene expression shifts, identified key driver genes, and conducted functional enrichment analysis.

resultsOur analysis revealed that somatostatin (

conclusionsThis study provides novel insights into the gene expression dynamics of the primate neocortex. Genes involved in neuronal development and plasticity may underlie the advanced information-processing capabilities in primates.
