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

Tau aggregation is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. Here, we tested how an obesogenic diet affects a Drosophila tauopathy model across multiple behavioral assays. In group-housed flies, mutant tau shortened lifespan, and this effect was worsened by a high-sugar diet. We also examined sleep, motor behavior, and sensory responsiveness. Tau-expressing flies differed from controls in all assays, but these deficits were not further exacerbated by diet. These findings reveal assay-specific diet effects and highlight the value of using multiple behavioral measures to characterize tau mutant phenotypes.
