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

Hyperphosphorylated Tau aggregates are a central pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet no approved therapy directly targets this process. mRNA therapeutics provide a transient and non-viral option but are limited by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). TRIM11 is an ATP-independent disaggregase that dissolves pathological Tau fibrils and promotes proteasomal clearance. Here, a ligand-free lipid nanoparticle (PLNP) is developed with zwitterionic, acetylcholine-mimetic poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) as a core component and leverages interactions with nAChRs and chTs to enable BBB transcytosis. Systemic PLNP delivery of TRIM11 mRNA yields an 8.1-fold increase in hippocampal accumulation and >30-fold higher neuronal transfection than unformulated mRNA. In 3×Tg-AD mice, PLNP-mTRIM11 reduces P-Ser396- and AT8-positive Tau aggregates, attenuates neuroinflammation, restores synaptic/neuronal integrity, and improves cognition and nest building for ≥3 months. Early prophylactic dosing prevents Tau pathology and preserves cognitive function, supporting PLNP-mTRIM11 for tauopathy therapy.
