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

Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are widely expressed in the brain; however, their precise roles in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), remain elusive. We found that TRPC3 expression is upregulated in excitatory neurons of brains with AD. We tested a selective inhibitor (JW-65) for TRPC3 over TRPC6 to investigate the potentially distinct role of TRPC3 in AD. JW-65 treatment significantly restored impaired synaptic plasticity and learning memory in acute and chronic experimental AD models. JW-65 treatment of late symptomatic 5XFAD transgenic mice reversed the impaired LTP, correlating with their significantly corrected synaptic gene expression based on hippocampal RNA-seq data analysis. JW-65 also provided synaptic protection in primary rat hippocampal neurons against soluble β-amyloid oligomers (AβOs), primarily via restoring the AβOs-impaired Ca
