Sephin1 reduces TDP-43 cytoplasmic mislocalization and improves motor neuron survival in ALS models.
Article in Life science alliance, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
A pathological hallmark of ALS is the abnormal accumulation of misfolded proteins (e.g., TDP-43) and enlarged endoplasmic reticulum (ER), indicating ER stress. To resolve this stress, cells initiate the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). However, unresolved stress leads to apoptosis. In ALS, UPR activation fails to resolve proteostasis impairment. UPR activation modulators, among them Sephin1, reduce protein aggregates and improve motor neuron survival in ALS models. We demonstrate that following glutamate intoxication, Sephin1 increases motor neuron survival by reducing mitochondria ROS production and extranuclear TDP-43. Sephin1 reduces abnormal splicing because of TDP-43 nuclear loss of function following oxidative stress. In SOD1
