Multilevel Screening Platform Utilizing Cellular and Zebrafish Models to Identify Short Peptides with High Improvement of Motor Neuron Growth.

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.
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
Zebrafish is emerging as a model animal for phenotype-based drug screening. Drugs screened from the zebrafish platform have advanced into clinical trials, underscoring their translational potential. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a progressive motor neurons (MN) degenerative disease with few approved drugs. Previously, supplementation with exogenous recombinant phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (Pgk1) was found to improve MN growth through its interaction with receptor Eno2. To bypass the high complexity and cost of full-length Pgk1 production, a short segment within Pgk1 (M08) was predicted as the key motif interacting with Eno2, and a zebrafish phenotypic screening platform was established to find the most neurotrophic compound(s) among M08 and its mutants. We first found that M08-injected zebrafish embryos significantly increased branched caudal primary MNs (CaPMNs). However, compared to M08 (59.20 ± 1.80%), M039, among 17 mutants further screened, showed even more improvement of branched CaPMNs, up to 74.54 ± 3.73%. Next, when we administered the M039 peptide to
