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

Many studies have demonstrated the cytoprotective effects of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) in vitro and/or in vivo ischemic injury. The aim of the current study was to investigate whether exogenous H(2)S attenuates the neuronal injury induced by brain ischemia. As an H(2)S donor, sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) was administered intraperitoneally (5.6 mg/kg/day, i.p.). The effects of exogenous H(2)S on neurons of ischemic hippocampus were examined by using measurement of behavior, electrophysiology, morphology and immunohistochemical staining, respectively. Our results showed that exogenous H(2)S significantly improved spatial learning and memory deficits induced by brain ischemia (P < 0.01). Exogenous H(2)S enhanced synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus of brain-ischemic rats, inhibited the edema around pyramidal neurons and the nuclear shrink induced by ischemia, and promoted the expression of growth-associated protein-43 (GAP-43) in the CA1 region of hippocampus post ischemia. The results suggest a protective effect and therapeutic potential of H(2)S in the treatment of brain ischemia.
