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

NOP56, a core nucleolar component involved in small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein assembly, has been genetically implicated in spinocerebellar ataxia type 36. However, the role of NOP56 in mammalian neurodevelopment and disease remains poorly defined. We investigated NOP56 pathobiology using both in vitro induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons and in vivo NOP56 knockout mouse models. NOP56 expression significantly decreased both in the spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 patients induced pluripotent cells and induced pluripotent cell-derived neurons, which suggests the possibility that the NOP56 loss of function is involved in the spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 phenotype. Therefore, we generated and validated the NOP56 knockout mouse phenotype. Homozygous NOP56 deletion resulted in total embryonic lethality; no NOP56
