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

Synaptic dysfunction is a major contributor to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and represents an attractive therapeutic target. Here, we investigated whether chronic isoserine treatment improves cognition and alters the expression of synaptic-related genes in APP/PS1 mice. Isoserine was well tolerated and did not adversely affect body weight. In the Morris water maze, isoserine improved probe-trial performance in APP/PS1 mice, significantly reducing latency to the first platform-location crossing, while time spent in the target quadrant showed a directionally consistent but non-significant increase. To identify molecular correlates, we profiled 84 synaptic-related genes using a targeted RT
