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

TMEM16F is involved in many physiological processes such as blood coagulation, cell membrane fusion and bone mineralization. Activation of TMEM16F has been studied in various central nervous system diseases. High TMEM16F level has been also found to participate in microglial phagocytosis and transformation. Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a key factor in promoting the progression of Alzheimer's disease. However, few studies have examined the effects of TMEM16F on neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease. In this study, we established TMEM16F-knockdown AD model in vitro and in vivo to investigate the underlying regulatory mechanism about TMEM16F-mediated neuroinflammation in AD. We performed a Morris water maze test to evaluate the spatial memory ability of animals and detected markers for the microglia M1/M2 phenotype and NLRP3 inflammasome. Our results showed that TMEM16F was elevated in 9-month-old APP/PS1 mice. After TMEM16F knockdown in mice, spatial memory ability was improved, microglia polarization to the M2 phenotype was promoted, NLRP3 inflammasome activation was inhibited, cell apoptosis and Aβ plaque deposition in brain tissue were reduced, and brain injury was alleviated. We used amyloid-beta (Aβ
