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

Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) is an important cofactor in a wide range of biochemical reactions, such as the metabolism of various amino acids, including GABA. PLP is synthesized by the oxidation of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP), which is catalyzed by PNP oxidase (PNPO). We observed the changes in cresyl violet-positive neurons, PNPO immunoreactivity and PNPO protein levels in the somatosensory cortex and striatum in gerbils after 5 min of transient forebrain ischemia. Cresyl violet-positive neurons showed condensed cytoplasm in the somatosensory cortex and lateral part of the striatum at 2 days after ischemia/reperfusion. PNPO immunoreactivity began to increase in neurons in layers III and V at 3 h after ischemia/reperfusion and this immunoreactivity was significantly increased at 12 h after ischemia/reperfusion. Thereafter, PNPO immunoreactivity decreased with time after ischemia/reperfusion. PNPO-immunoreactive neurons were only slightly detected in the lateral part of the striatum at 12 h after ischemia/reperfusion. In addition, the PNPO protein levels in both the somatosensory cortex and striatum homogenates peaked at 12 h after ischemia/reperfusion. These results indicate that PNPO is significantly increased in the ischemic somatosensory cortex and lateral part of the striatum, and this change in the level of PNPO may be associated with the neuronal damage induced by ischemia.
