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

aimsWe tested the hypothesis that endothelial progenitor cell (EPC)-mediated functional recovery after stroke may be associated with the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)/brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling pathway.

methodsMice were infused with either EPCs or saline after being subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion. The EPC-treated mice also received intravenous injections of either Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, the NOS inhibitor) or saline.

resultsThe activation of eNOS and the expression of BDNF were significantly increased in ischemic brain of the EPC-treated mice, along with increased angiogenesis and neurogenesis. On diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), significant increases in fractional anisotropy and fiber count were observed in white matter, indicating axonal growth stimulated by EPCs. However, the EPC-treated mice that were received an L-NAME injection failed to exhibit the observed increases in angiogenesis, neurogenesis, and axonal growth. In addition, the neurons cocultured with EPCs in vitro exhibited the increased expression of BDNF and decreased apoptosis after oxygen-glucose deprivation compared with the control group. This EPC-induced protective effect was virtually absent in the L-NAME treatment group.

conclusionThe eNOS/BDNF pathway may be involved in the EPC-mediated functional recovery of stroke mice. DTI is feasible for dynamically tracking the orientation of axonal projections after EPC treatment.
