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

In human cortex it has been suggested that the tissue at risk is indicated by clusters of spreading depolarizations (SDs) with persistent depression of high-frequency electrocorticographic (ECoG) activity. We here characterized this zone in the ET-1 model in rats using direct current (DC)-ECoG recordings. Topical application of the vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (ET-1) induces focal ischemia in a concentration-dependent manner restricted to a region exposed by a cranial window, while a healthy cortex can be studied at a second naïve window. SDs originate in the ET-1-exposed cortex and invade the surrounding tissue. Necrosis is restricted to the ET-1-exposed cortex. In this study, we discovered that persistent depression occurred in both ET-1-exposed and surrounding cortex during SD clusters. However, the ET-1-exposed cortex showed longer-lasting negative DC shifts and limited high-frequency ECoG recovery after the cluster. DC-ECoG recordings of SD clusters with persistent depression from patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were then analyzed for comparison. Limited ECoG recovery was associated with significantly longer-lasting negative DC shifts in a similar manner to the experimental model. These preliminary results suggest that the ischemic zone in rat and human cortex is surrounded by a normally perfused belt with persistently reduced synaptic activity during the acute injury phase.
