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

Neural repair after traumatic spinal cord injury depends upon the restoration of neural networks via axonal sprouting and regeneration. Our previous genome wide loss-of-function screen identified Rab GTPases as playing a prominent role in preventing successful axon sprouting and regeneration. Here, we searched for Rab27b interactors and identified Rabphilin3A as an effector within regenerating axons. Growth cone Rabphilin3a colocalized and physically associated with integrins at puncta in the proximal body of the axonal growth cone. In regenerating axons, loss of Rabphilin3a increased integrin enrichment in the growth cone periphery, enhanced focal adhesion kinase activation, increased F-actin-rich filopodial density and stimulated axon extension. Compared to wild type, mice lacking Rabphilin3a exhibited greater regeneration of retinal ganglion cell axons after optic nerve crush as well as greater corticospinal axon regeneration after complete thoracic spinal cord crush injury. After moderate spinal cord contusion injury, there was greater corticospinal regrowth in the absence of Rph3a. Thus, an endogenous Rab27b - Raphilin3a pathway limits integrin action in the growth cone, and deletion of this monomeric GTPase pathway permits reparative axon growth in the injured adult mammalian central nervous system.
