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

Stroke is responsible for 10% of all deaths worldwide, and there remains an urgent need for the development of clinically effective treatments for acute stroke. Stroke is now considered to be a disease characterized by an ongoing inflammatory process rather than simply acute neurodegeneration. Bradykinin has attracted recent interest as a potential mediator of brain injury following stroke, because it activates several mechanisms responsible for the early manifestations of inflammation, including arteriolar dilatation, increased vascular permeability and oedema formation. These actions of bradykinin occur via activation of B(2) receptors. New evidence suggests that blocking bradykinin B(2) receptors after experimental cerebral ischaemia reduces brain oedema, infarct volume and neuronal necrosis, and improves neurological outcome. Thus, B(2) receptor antagonists may be a promising new class of compounds for clinical use after the onset of cerebral ischaemia.
