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

Directed axonal trafficking of mRNA via ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes is essential for neuronal function and survival. However, mechanisms governing retrograde RNP transport remain poorly understood. Here, we reveal that Annexin A7 (ANXA7) promotes the recruitment of aggregation-prone T-cell intracellular antigen 1 (TIA1)-containing RNPs to cytoplasmic dynein, enabling their retrograde trafficking to the soma for degradation. Both persistent and transient Ca²⁺ elevation disrupted this function of ANXA7, leading to the detachment of TIA1 granules from dynein, impairing their transport, and subsequently triggering pathological TIA1 aggregation within axons. Similarly, ANXA7 knockdown decouples TIA1 granules from dynein, preventing their transport and inducing pathological aggregation of TIA1, which culminates in axonopathy and neurodegeneration both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, ANXA7 overexpression reinforces trafficking and counteracts aberrant aggregation of TIA1-containing RNPs in axons. We describe here a Ca
