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

Increased generation of free radicals resulting in brain injury is a feature of many viral infections. The present study has been undertaken to evaluate the level of free radicals in Japanese encephalitis. Twelve days old Wistar rats were inoculated intracerebrally with 3 x 10(6) pfu of JE virus and were sacrificed on 3, 6, 10, and 20 days post inoculation (dpi). The neuronal levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), peroxinitrite (OONO(-)), necrotic and apoptotic cell population were estimated by flow cytometry. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was also performed. Maximum level of neuronal ROS and OONO(-) was observed on 6 dpi; however, NO levels peaked on 10 dpi. Free radical generation significantly declined on 20 dpi as compared to control. Apoptotic cell death gradually increased over the time. Neuronal shrinkage and necrosis was also observed. The results of our study indicate that free radicals increased in acute JE and declined at later stage, which may contribute to cell death.
