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

Local protein synthesis within neuronal processes seems to be crucial for the rapid and dynamic remodeling of the proteome at synaptic compartments. Indeed, this capability enables neurons to swiftly adapt their synaptic functions in response to activity. In this review, we first explore the diverse mechanisms that allow the targeted transport of mRNAs into both dendrites and axons. Then, we report evidence that local mRNAs are actively recruited for protein synthesis during plasticity. Finally, we highlight how this molecular complexity contributes to the establishment and stabilization of memory traces, or engrams, within neural circuits. We propose that presynaptic protein synthesis is a pivotal factor driving the diversification of presynaptic terminals, a process we foresee as essential for the durable consolidation and specificity of engrams.
