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

Parkinson's disease (PD), which is estimated to affect approximately 1 % of the population over the age of 65, is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease. It was reported that pathogenic mutations in DJ-1 lead to autosomal recessive early-onset familial Parkinsonism. The L166P mutant of DJ-1 is the most commonly studied loss-of-function mutation in early onset familial PD, but the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Edaravone is a powerful free radical scavenger used in clinical treatment for cerebral ischemic stroke. In the present study, we investigated the effects of edaravone on the neurotoxicity in PD-induced isoforms of DJ-1 containing the mutation L166P. Our results indicated that edaravone was able to significantly attenuate oxidative stress and improve mitochondrial function. Furthermore, edaravone was found to reduce apoptosis in Neuro2a cells through modulation of mitochondria-dependent apoptosis pathways. Interestingly, our result also demonstrated that edaravone was able to up-regulate VMAT2 expression in N2a cells in a dose-dependent manner. Our findings enhance the understanding of the neuro-protective effects of edaravone in cell models and suggest that edaravone offers significant protection in a PD-related in vitro model.
