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

Intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of streptozotocin (STZ) in rat brain causes prolonged impairment of brain energy metabolism and oxidative damage and leads to cognitive dysfunction; however, its mechanistic specific effects on neurons are not known. The present study was conducted to investigate the STZ-induced cellular and molecular alterations in mouse neuronal N2A cells. The N2A cells were treated with STZ (10, 50, 100, 1000 μM) for 48 h, and different assays were performed. STZ treatment caused significant decrease in cell viability, choline levels, increased acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, tau phosphorylation and amyloid aggregation. STZ treatment also led to low levels of glucose uptake, elevated mitochondrial stress, translocation of cytochrome c in cytosol, phosphatidylserine externalization, increased expression of caspase-3 and DNA damage. Co-treatment of clinically used drug donepezil (1 μM) offered significant protection against STZ induced neurotoxicity. Donepezil treatment significantly inhibited the STZ induced neurotoxicity, altered choline level, AChE activity, lowered glucose uptake and mitochondrial stress. However, the caspase-3 expression remains unaltered with co-treatment of donepezil. In conclusion, findings showed that STZ treated N2A cells exhibited the Alzheimer's disease (AD) related pathological markers which are attenuated with co-treatment of donepezil. Findings of the study suggested the potent use of STZ treated N2A cells as in vitro experimental test model to study the disease mechanism at cellular level.
