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

Oxidative stress has been proposed to be an important factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and contributed to β-amyloid (Aβ) generation. Interaction between oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation leads to Aβ generation. AD is associated with an increase in blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability due to tight junction involvement. Oxidative stress decreases the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 and up-regulates receptor for advanced glycation end products in BBB and increases the BBB permeability, which could potentially lead to increased deposition of Aβ within AD brain. Apoptosis takes place in the pathogenesis of AD, and oxidative stress contributes to apoptosis through both extrinsic pathway and intrinsic pathway. Oxidative stress-induced apoptosis may be a potential factor to Aβ generation. Aβ generation requires two sequential cleavages of APP, with the two proteolytic enzymes: β-secretase and γ-secretase. Oxidative damage up-regulates Aβ via inducing activity of β- and γ-secretases. In this review, we will focus on the mechanism and pathway that oxidative stress contributes to Aβ generation.
