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

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in social interaction and repetitive behaviors. Increasing evidence suggests that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to abnormal brain development in ASD; however, whether prenatal modulation of ER stress can prevent ASD-like phenotypes remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of prenatal administration of the chemical chaperone 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA) in two etiologically distinct ASD mouse models: valproic acid (VPA)-exposed Jcl:ICR (ICR) mice and BTBR
