Neuroprotective effect of ginseng against spinal cord injury induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
The pathophysiological effects of spinal cord injury (SCI) occur as a result of oxidative stress and inflammatory mechanisms. In the present study we analyzed the protective role of ginseng on spinal injury in wistar rats. To evaluate the redox status, we investigated various parameters including estimation of reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxidation content, protein carbonyl and sulphydryl content, myeloperoxidase activity, antioxidant status (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-s-transferase). Expression of antioxidant transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) was determined through immunoblot. Inflammatory study was performed by evaluating the expression of nuclear factor-κB, cycloxygenase-2 by western blot analysis. Further the pro-inflammatory cytokines were determined through ELISA (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β). We observed a significant enhancement in oxidative stress and inflammatory markers in rats with SCI injury. Ginseng treatment significantly down regulated the oxidative stress by enhancing the antioxidant status in SCI rats. Significant inhibition of inflammation was observed through down regulation of inflammatory proteins and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Thus our findings show that Ginseng significantly ameliorated spinal cord injury in wistar rats by modulating oxidative stress and inflammation.
