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

Variants in integrin β3 (Itgb3) are associated with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. Itgb3 deletion in mice leads to aberrant development of excitatory pyramidal neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, as well as aberrant social and repetitive behaviors. However, its expression pattern in the developing brain has not been well studied. Due to its functional importance in the developing forebrain, we hypothesized that Itgb3 expression would be developmentally regulated and localized to cortical and hippocampal pyramidal neurons in the mouse brain. We found that Itgb3 mRNA is strongly expressed throughout the forebrain, especially in layer 5 of cerebral cortex and CA3 of hippocampus. In mouse cortical layer 5 and in hippocampal CA3, Itgb3 mRNA expression is high at postnatal day 6-7 and is downregulated in cortex by postnatal day 20-21. It is expressed preferentially in glutamatergic excitatory pyramidal neurons. Peak Itgb3 expression therefore coincides with the timeframe for peak dendritic formation and synaptogenesis in cortical and hippocampal glutamatergic excitatory pyramidal neurons.
