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

1. The morphology of neurons in the dentate gyrus of the adult human brain was analyzed with two variants of Golgi technique. 2. About 20 neuronal types and subtypes were observed in the dentate gyrus of the adult human, several of which has not previously been described in the human. The human dentate gyrus harbors 4 types of neurons in the molecular layer, 3 types within the granule cell layer, and at least 10 types in the hilus. 3. Compared to the granule neurons in the rat brain, human granule neurons show a much greater variability. Many of these human neurons have basal dendrites and/or axonal spines. Also, there are significant differences among these neurons regarding the density of their dendritic trees and dendritic spines. In contrast to the rat, human hilar neurons with complex spines have complex spines not only on their dendrites but also on their cell bodies. 4. This study opens the door for further morphological studies involving specific diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy.
