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 cerebellum plays an important role in both motor control and cognition. The cerebellar cortex is neuron-rich and composed of characteristic folia and fissures. Defective cerebellar development leads to movement disorders and developmental delay. During early morphogenesis, cellular signaling programs orchestrate simultaneous cerebellar growth and foliation. Aberrant signaling causes various degrees of cerebellar hypoplasia. Based on mouse genetic studies, we discuss several developmental signaling pathways that drive cerebellar morphogenesis. Notably, hypoplasia of vermal lobules VI-VII has been linked to autism spectrum disorder and is in part attributed to brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/tropomyosin receptor kinase B signaling. This review also discusses how BDNF biogenesis is critical for cerebellar foliation and whether restoring BDNF signaling could reverse cerebellar developmental disorders.
