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

Epileptic seizures often track with time of day and/or changes in vigilance state; however, specific molecular and cellular mechanisms driving the ictal and temporal associations are lacking. Astrocytes are a type of glial cell known to modulate neuronal excitability and circadian rhythms. These cells also abundantly express fatty acid-binding protein 7 (Fabp7), a clock-driven molecule necessary for normal sleep regulation, lipid signaling, and gene transcription. To determine whether Fabp7 influences time-of-day-dependent seizure susceptibility, we tested male C57/BL6N wild-type (WT) and
