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

Angelman syndrome (AS) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder caused by the loss of maternal UBE3A, an E3 ubiquitin ligase essential for neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive function. AS has traditionally been viewed as a cell-autonomous disorder in which intracellular UBE3A deficiency drives neuronal dysfunction. However, recent evidence suggests that impaired extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated intercellular communication also contributes to disease pathophysiology. EVs are key intercellular mediators of neuronal and glial signaling, as they transfer proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which regulate synaptic homeostasis, circuit maturation, and brain plasticity. Here, we discuss emerging evidence linking UBE3A deficiency to alterations in EV biogenesis, cargo composition, secretion, and uptake. We propose that disruption of ubiquitin-dependent endosomal trafficking, together with endolysosomal dysfunction involving LAMTOR1 and the lysosomal Ca
