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

Prosaposin (PSAP), a precursor of saposins, is essential for lysosomal hydrolysis of sphingolipids. It binds with progranulin (PGRN) and transports from the Golgi to lysosomes, where it is processed into saposins. PSAP is also secreted and functions on various cells, including neurons. We found that PSAP is highly expressed in the subfornical organ (SFO), a thirst center, in SAP-D-deficient (SAP-D
