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

Following peripheral nerve injury, retrograde signals originating from the injury site may activate intrinsic factors in the injured neurons, possibly leading to regenerative growth. Retrograde influences from peripheral injury sites may lead to the activation of glial cells in the vicinity of the centrally located cell bodies of the injured neurons. Few studies have examined changes in the spinal cord intermediolateral cell column (IML), which houses sympathetic preganglionic cell bodies, following injury to distal axons in the cervical sympathetic trunk (CST). The goal of the present study was to determine if transection of the CST results in plasticity in glial cells in the IML. At 1 day following injury, changes in the expression of microglial marker Iba1 were observed and the typical oligodendrocyte-neuronal relationship was altered. By 7 days, astrogliosis, microglial aggregation, and increased numbers of oligodendrocytes, as well as enhanced glial-glial and glial-neuronal relationships were present. The majority of cases were similar to controls at 3 weeks following injury and no changes were observed in any cases at 10 weeks following the injury. These results revealed changes in astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes in the spinal cord following transection of preganglionic axons comprising the CST, indicating their ability to respond to distal axonal injury.
