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

Synaptic transmission is essential for brain function. But which characteristics of synapse function are so crucial that they are conserved between species? In general, animal models have shaped our understanding of neuronal function, although in recent years our knowledge of human neurophysiology has vastly increased. Comparative analyses between rodent and human neurons have highlighted the similarities and differences in morpho-electrical features, but the extent to which the properties of neurotransmitter release are conserved is underexplored. In this study, we compared the intrinsic properties that determine synaptic strength in cultured GABAergic neurons from mouse and human. Our findings demonstrate that, while passive neuronal properties are different across species, synaptic properties are similar, suggesting that mechanisms of synaptic transmission are conserved between mouse and human neurons. This work provides valuable insight into the extent to which animal models reflect human synaptic components at the single cell level.
