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

objectivesThis study evaluated cytokines and chemokine in different regions of the rat brain at different time points following Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection.

designTwelve-day-old Wistar rats were infected by intracerebral inoculation of 3 × 10(6) plaque-forming units of JEV 78668A strain. Expression of cytokines and chemokine was assayed using cytokine bead array in different regions of the brain at 3, 6, 10 and 20 days post-inoculation (dpi). Pathological changes including immunohistochemistry for JEV antigen were observed.

resultsThe cytokine levels were increased in the acute stage and declined on follow-up. In the acute stage (6 dpi), the levels of TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-6 and IL-10 were maximum in the cortex, whereas the level of IL-4 was maximum in the striatum. Lower levels of these cytokines were observed in mid-brain and thalamus compared to other regions studied. Maximum expression of JEV antigen and histopathological changes as well as cytokines and chemokine were observed at 6 dpi in all the brain regions studied, but declined thereafter.

conclusionThis experimental study revealed maximum expression of cytokines and chemokine at 6 dpi of JEV infection which corresponded with histopathological changes in different brain regions.
