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

backgroundX-ALD is a white matter (WM) disease caused by mutations in the ABCD1 gene encoding the transporter of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) into peroxisomes. Strikingly, the same ABCD1 mutation causes either devastating brain inflammatory demyelination during childhood or, more often, progressive spinal cord axonopathy starting in middle-aged adults. The accumulation of undegraded VLCFA in glial cell membranes and myelin has long been thought to be the central mechanism of X-ALD.

methodsThis review discusses studies in mouse and drosophila models that have modified our views of X-ALD pathogenesis.

resultsIn the

conclusionsAnimal models supporting a primary role of OLs and axonal pathology and a secondary role of microglia allow us to revisit of X-ALD mechanisms. Beyond
