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

Mutations in Shank3 are the primary genetic cause of Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (PMS), a neurodevelopmental disorder frequently comorbid with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). As a key scaffolding protein in the postsynaptic site, SHANK3 shapes excitatory glutamatergic synaptic function by interacting with AMPARs, NMDARs, and mGluRs. While Shank3 deficiency has been extensively studied in forebrain regions, relatively little is known about its role in the cerebellum, a brain area increasingly implicated in ASD pathobiology and involved in motor and non-motor processing. Since cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) exhibit high Shank3 expression, this study aims to investigate how Shank3 loss affects mossy fiber (MF)-CGC glutamatergic synaptic function. Whole-cell patch clamp electrophysiological recordings from CGCs in ex vivo cerebellar brain slices from adult (4-6 months old) wild type (WT) and homozygous Shank3
