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

Current in vitro models of stroke involve applying oxygen-glucose deprived (OGD) media over an entire brain slice or plate of cultured neurons. Thus, these models fail to mimic the focal nature of stroke as observed clinically and with in vivo rodent models of stroke. Our aim was to develop a novel in vitro brain slice model of stroke that would mimic focal ischemia and thus allow for the investigation of events occurring in the penumbra. This was accomplished by focally applying OGD medium to a small portion of a brain slice while bathing the remainder of the slice with normal oxygenated media. This technique produced a focal infarct on the brain slice that increased as a function of time. Electrophysiological recordings made within the flow of the OGD solution ("core") revealed that neurons rapidly depolarized (anoxic depolarization; AD) in a manner similar to that observed in other stroke models. Edaravone, a known neuroprotectant, significantly delayed this onset of AD. Electrophysiological recordings made outside the flow of the OGD solution ("penumbra") revealed that neurons within this region progressively depolarized throughout the 75 min of OGD application. Edaravone attenuated this depolarization and doubled neuronal survival. Finally, synaptic transmission in the penumbra was abolished within 50 min of focal OGD application. These results suggest that this in vitro model mimics events that occur during focal ischemia in vivo and can be used to determine the efficacy of therapeutics that target neuronal survival in the core and/or penumbra.
