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) is characterized by amyloid plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and synaptic and neuronal loss. Recently, a rare autosomal dominant coding mutation, T835M, in the Un-coordinated 5c (UNC5C) netrin receptor gene was segregated with late-onset AD (LOAD). Overexpression of T835M in primary hippocampal neurons increased cell death in response to neurotoxic stimuli including beta-amyloid (Aβ) suggesting a mechanism by which T835M may confer increased risk of LOAD. However, the molecular mechanism of T835M-mediated cell death remained under explored. Toward this end, we generated a mouse T835M knock-in (Unc5c
