Fasudil mesylate protects PC12 cells from oxidative stress injury via the Bax-mediated pathway.

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.
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
We previously reported that fasudil mesylate (FM) improves neurological deficit and neuronal damage in rats with ischemia following middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion in vivo. In this study, the properties of FM on hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-induced oxidative stress insult in cultured PC12 cells as well as the underlying mechanisms were investigated in vitro. Pretreatment with FM (5, 10 μM) prior to H(2)O(2) exposure significantly elevated cell viability, reduced cell apoptosis by MTT assay, LDH assay, Hoechst 33258 dye staining, and FM also decreased the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by DCFH-DA staining and NBT test. Furthermore, FM also reversed the upregulation of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, the downstream cascade following ROS. FM protected PC12 cells from oxidative stress insult via downregulating the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. These findings indicate that a direct effect of fasudil mesylate on PC12 cells may be partly responsible for its protective effect against oxidative stress injury.
