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

Despite long being considered to be passive and supportive cells, in the last decades astrocytes have arisen as key regulators of neuronal excitability, synaptic transmission and plasticity. Since the discovery of the tripartite synapse, accumulating evidence suggests that astrocytes are involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including α-synucleinopathies. Here we will discuss recent evidence showing that astrocytes express endogenous α-synuclein and the implications of this protein in astrocyte cellular processes. Furthermore, we review how the expression of pathological forms of this protein in astrocytes leads to aberrant cytosolic Ca
