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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains irreversible largely because the adult brain cannot replace lost neurons. Here, we present a Nano-ERASER-based Trim-Away system (TN-PTBP1) that enables adult neuroregeneration in the AD brain, offering a new strategy to counteract AD progression. TN-PTBP1 penetrates the blood-brain barrier, delivers anti-PTBP1 antibodies into astrocytes, and triggers rapid TRIM21-mediated PTBP1 degradation. This non-genomic protein depletion induces astrocyte-to-neuron conversion, generates functional neurons
