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

Aberrant phosphorylation, which is absent in healthy brains but present exclusively in the brains of individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD), plays a critical role in AD development. It causes the dissociation of tau protein from microtubules, followed by the aggregation of tau protein into brain-toxic oligomers and fibrils. In our previous study, we investigated the impact of abnormal phosphorylation at S289 (pS289) on the oligomerization of tau repeat R2 peptides. In this work, we continue to investigate the effect of aberrant phosphorylation at residue S293 (pS293) on the R2 peptides. Our result indicated that pS293 also promotes oligomerization, which is similar to pS289. Both the phosphorylation-enhanced intramolecular and intermolecular interactions and β-sheet formation of phosphorylated R2 compared to that of the wild type. We observed that Na
