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

Calcineurin (CaN) is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase directly activated by calcium as a result of neuronal activation that is important for neuronal function. CaN subunit isoforms are implicated in long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), and structural plasticity. CaN inhibitors are also beneficial to cognitive outcomes in animal models of traumatic brain injury (TBI). There are known changes in the CaN A (CnA) subunit following fluid percussion injury (FPI). The CnA subunit has two isoforms: CnAalpha and CnAbeta. The effect of moderate controlled cortical impact (CCI) on distribution of CnA isoforms was examined at 2 h and 2 weeks post-injury. CnA distribution was assayed by immunohistochemistry and graded for non-parametric analysis. Acutely CnA isoforms showed reduced immunoreactivity in stratum radiatum processes of the ipsilateral CA1 and CA1-2. There was also a significant alteration in the immunoreactivity of both CnA isoforms in the ipsilateral dentate gyrus, predominantly within the hidden blade. Alterations in CnA isoform regional distribution within the CA1, CA1-2, and dentate gyrus may have significant implications for persistent hippocampal dysfunction following TBI, including dysfunction in hippocampal plasticity. Understanding alterations in CnA isoform distribution may help improve the targeting of current therapeutic interventions and/or the development of new treatments for TBI.
