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

We have used compartmented cultures of rat sympathetic neurons to quantitatively examine the retrograde transport of 125I-nerve growth factor (NGF) supplied to distal axons and to characterize the cellular events that maintain steady-state levels of NGF in cell bodies. In cultures allowed to reach steady-state 125I-NGF transport, cell bodies contained only 5-30% of the total neuron-associated 125I-NGF, whereas 70-95% remained associated with the distal axons. This was true over an 8 pM to 1.5 nM 125I-NGF concentration range, indicating that saturation of high affinity receptors could not account for the large fraction of 125I-NGF remaining in axons. Dissociation assays indicated that 85% of 125I-NGF associated with distal axons was surface-bound. At steady-state, only 2-25% of the distal axon-associated 125I-NGF was retrogradely transported each hour, with higher transport rates associated with younger cultures and lower 125I-NGF concentrations. The velocity of 125I-NGF retrograde transport was estimated at 10-20 mm/hr. However, as in a previous report, almost no 125I-NGF transport was observed during the first hour after 125I-NGF administration, indicating a significant lag between receptor binding and loading onto the retrograde transport system. During 125I-NGF transport through axons spanning an intermediate compartment in five-compartment cultures, little or no 125I-NGF was degraded or released from the axons. After transport, 125I-NGF was degraded with a half-life of 3 hr. In summary, although some cellular events promoted NGF accumulation in cell bodies, distal axons represented by far the principal site of NGF-receptor interaction at steady-state as a result of a low retrograde transport rate.
