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

Understanding the brain's molecular diversity requires spatially resolved maps of transcripts and proteins across regions and compartments. Here, we performed deep spatial molecular profiling of the mouse hippocampus, combining microdissection of 3 subregions and 4 strata with fluorescence-activated synaptosome sorting, transcriptomics, and proteomics. This approach revealed thousands of locally enriched molecules spanning diverse receptor, channel, metabolic, and adhesion families. Integration of transcriptome and proteome data highlighted proteins tightly linked to or decoupled from mRNA availability, in part due to protein half-life differences. Incorporation of translatome data identified roles for protein trafficking versus local translation in establishing compartmental organization of pyramidal neurons, with distal dendrites showing increased reliance on local protein synthesis. Classification of CA1 synapses revealed contributions from kinases, cytoskeletal elements, and adhesion molecules in defining synaptic specificity. Together, this study provides a molecular atlas of the hippocampus and its synapses (syndive.org), and offers insights into spatial transcript-protein relationships.
