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

The neurotoxic effect of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta was studied in monolayer cultures, obtained using roller-drum incubation of hippocampal slices from neonatal Sprague Dawley rats. Following exposure to recombinant rat IL-1beta for four days, a concentration dependent loss was observed in the number of NMDAR1 receptor subunit immunoreactive pyramidal neurons in the cultures, reaching significance at 10 ng/ml rIL-1beta. Also incubation with recombinant mouse IL-1beta caused a loss of pyramidal neurons, with a significant effect at a concentration of 30 pg/ml. The vitamin E analog trolox (30 microM) was found to exert a protective effect against the rIL-1beta induced neuronal degeneration. A neuroprotective action against rIL-1beta was also found after co-incubation with the NMDA antagonist dizocilpine (MK-801; 30 microM), while no protection was found with the GABAA mimetic clomethiazole. Hence, the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1beta is neurotoxic to hippocampal pyramidal neurons when studied in an in vitro system with advanced phenotypic characteristics. The neuroprotective effects exerted by trolox and MK-801 suggest that free radicals and NMDA receptor-mediated processes are involved in IL-1beta -induced neurodegeneration.
