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

One of our previous studies showed that Yizhijiannao Granule, a compound Chinese medicine, effectively improved the clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, we established a model of Alzheimer's disease using beta-amyloid (25-35) in PC12 cells, and treated the cells with Yizhijiannao Granule and its four monomers, i.e., icariin, catechin, Panax notoginseng saponins, and eleutheroside E. Flow cytometry showed that Yizhijiannao Granule-containing serum, icariin, Panax notoginseng saponins, and icariin + Panax notoginseng saponins were protective against beta-amyloid (25-35)-induced injury in PC12 cells. Icariin in combination with Panax notoginseng saponins significantly inhibited early apoptosis of PC12 cells with beta-amyloid (25-35)-induced injury compared to icariin or Panax notoginseng saponins alone. The effects of icariin + Panax notoginseng saponins were similar to the effects of Yizhijiannao Granule. The findings indicate that two of the effective monomers of Yizhijiannao Granule, icariin and Panax notoginseng saponins, can synergistically inhibit early apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by beta-amyloid (25-35).
