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

rationalePediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea (POSA) is a relatively common childhood sleep disorder whose neurodevelopmental phenotype includes deficits in learning and memory, olfaction, and fine motor abilities.

objectivesTo date, there has not been a validated preclinical model of POSA, hampering efforts in understanding how nocturnal episodes of intermittent hypoxia disrupt neurodevelopmental trajectories. The objective of this study was to create a faithful sculpting of the human condition in a preclinical murine model.

methodsWe used clinical data from children with POSA to develop and validate a mouse model of POSA that faithfully recapitulates several behavioral deficits seen in the human condition. We then studied synapses, and cellular constituents of neurogenic niches to interrogate the behavioral deficits. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN

resultsPOSA mice showed deficits in postnatal neurogenesis in both the subventricular zone and hippocampus. Specifically, we discovered fewer neural stem cells, neuroblasts, and newborn neurons in POSA mice.

conclusionsThis reduction in developmental neurogenesis was coupled with impaired functional integration of post exposure born neurons in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb. Taken together, our findings from this preclinical model based on human data indicate that POSA disrupts developmental neurogenesis and neuronal maturation, resulting in deficits in learning, memory, olfactory, and fine motor abilities.
