MFGE8/Integrin β3 pathway alleviates apoptosis and inflammation in early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats.
Article in Experimental neurology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundMilk fat globule-epidermal growth factor-factor 8(MFGE8)/Integrin β3 pathway was reported to be involved in reducing oxidative stress and early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In the present study, the potential effects of MFGE8 and its receptor Integrin β3 in the inhibition of apoptosis and neuroinflammation in early brain injury after SAH were investigated.
methodsNinety-five (95) male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. The SAH model was induced by endovascular perforation. Recombinant human MFGE8 (rhMFGE8), MFGE8 small interfering RNA (siRNA) and Integrin β3 siRNA were injected intracerebroventricularly. SAH grade, neurologic scores, Western blots and immunofluorescence were employed to study the mechanisms of MFGE8 and its receptor Integrin β3, as well as neurological outcome.
resultsSAH induced significant neuronal apoptosis and inflammation and exhibited neurological dysfunction in rats. Knockdown endogenous MFGE8 with siRNA significantly increased the protein levels of cleaved caspase 3 and IL-1β, accompanied with more neurological deficits. rhMFGE8 significantly reduced neural cell death in cortex, decreased cleaved caspase 3 and IL-1β expressions, and improved neurological functions 24h after SAH. The anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammation effects of rhMFGE8 were abolished by Integrin β3 siRNA.
conclusionMFGE8 could alleviate neurologic damage in early brain injury after SAH via anti-inflammation and anti-apoptosis effects. MFGE8 may serve as a promising therapeutic target for future management of SAH patients.
