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

Growing evidence indicates that oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction plays a critical role in brain aging. Chronic injection of D-galactose can cause gradual deterioration in learning and memory capacity and serve as an animal model of aging. Recently, potential therapeutic effect of carvedilol (CAR) has been reported by virtue of which its antioxidant and mitochondrial permeability transitional property. The present study has been designed to explore the CAR effect against D-galactose-induced behavioral, biochemical, and mitochondrial dysfunction in mice. Systemic administration of D-galactose for 6 weeks significantly impaired behavioral (learning and memory and locomotor activity), biochemical parameters (raised lipid peroxidation, nitrite concentration, depletion of reduced glutathione, and catalase activity), and mitochondrial enzymes (decreased complex I, II and III enzymes levels) as compared to sham group. CAR (2.5 and 5 mg/kg) treatment significantly improved behavioral abnormalities and biochemical and cellular alterations as compared to control. Chronic administration of D-galactose for a period of 6 week results into a significant increase of acetylcholine esterase enzyme level. CAR (2.5 and 5 mg/kg) treatment significantly attenuated the elevated level of acetylcholine esterase of mice. In conclusion, present studies highlight the protective effects of CAR against D-galactose-induced behavioral, biochemical, and mitochondrial dysfunction in mice. The study further provides a hope that CAR could be used in the management of cognitive dysfunction and related symptoms during aging.
