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

Diabetes increases the risk of as well as poor outcome after stroke. Matrix metalloprotease (MMP) activation disrupts blood-brain barrier integrity after cerebral ischemia. We have previously shown that type 2 diabetes promotes remodeling of middle cerebral arteries (MCA) characterized by increased media/lumen (M/L) ratio and MMP activity in an endothelin (ET)-1-dependent manner in the Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat model. In the present study, we examined the effects of ET-1-mediated vascular remodeling on neurovascular damage following cerebral ischemic injury in GK rats 5 and 12 weeks after the onset of diabetes. The MCA structure, cerebral perfusion as well as infarct size, and hemorrhage were measured in control and diabetic rats subjected to transient MCA occlusion. M/L ratio was increased after 12 but not 5 weeks of diabetes. The baseline cerebral perfusion was lower and the infarct volume smaller in diabetic rats in both age groups. The incidence of hemorrhagic transformation was higher after 5 weeks of diabetes as compared to that after 12 weeks or in the control groups. These findings provide evidence that ET-1-mediated cerebrovascular remodeling does not worsen the neurovascular damage of ischemic brain injury in diabetes. It is possible that this early remodeling response is compensatory in nature to regulate vascular tone and integrity, especially when ischemia is layered on diabetic vascular disease.
