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

The formation of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques is a central process in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although its causative role or the effectiveness of therapeutic targeting is still debated, the key involvement of Aβ in the pathogenesis of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in AD is broadly accepted. In this review, we emphasize the role of lipid rafts, both in APP cleavage producing Aβ in neurons and in mediating Aβ inflammatory signaling in microglia. We introduce the term inflammarafts to characterize the Aβ-driven formation of enlarged, cholesterol-rich lipid rafts in activated microglia, which support protein-protein and lipid-protein interactions of inflammatory receptors. Examples reviewed include toll-like receptors (TLR2, TLR4), scavenger receptors (CD36, RAGE), and TREM2. The downstream pathways lead to the production of cytokines and reactive oxygen species, intensifying neuroinflammation and resulting in neuronal injury and cognitive decline. We further summarize emerging therapeutic strategies and emphasize the utility of apolipoprotein A-I binding protein (AIBP) in selective targeting of inflammarafts and attenuation of microglia-driven inflammation. Unlike the targeting of a single inflammatory receptor or a secretase, selective disruption of inflammarafts and preservation of physiological lipid rafts offer a novel approach to targeting multiple components and processes that contribute to neuroinflammation in AD.
