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

Although cellular prion protein (PrP(c)) has been suggested to have physiological roles in neurogenesis and angiogenesis, the pathophysiological relevance of both processes remain unknown. To elucidate the role of PrP(c) in post-ischemic brain remodeling, we herein exposed PrP(c) wild type (WT), PrP(c) knockout (PrP-/-) and PrP(c) overexpressing (PrP+/+) mice to focal cerebral ischemia followed by up to 28 days reperfusion. Improved neurological recovery and sustained neuroprotection lasting over the observation period of 4 weeks were observed in ischemic PrP+/+ mice compared with WT mice. This observation was associated with increased neurogenesis and angiogenesis, whereas increased neurological deficits and brain injury were noted in ischemic PrP-/- mice. Proteasome activity and oxidative stress were increased in ischemic brain tissue of PrP-/- mice. Pharmacological proteasome inhibition reversed the exacerbation of brain injury induced by PrP-/-, indicating that proteasome inhibition mediates the neuroprotective effects of PrP(c). Notably, reduced proteasome activity and oxidative stress in ischemic brain tissue of PrP+/+ mice were associated with an increased abundance of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and PACAP-38, which are known stimulants of neural progenitor cell (NPC) migration and trafficking. To elucidate effects of PrP(c) on intracerebral NPC homing, we intravenously infused GFP(+) NPCs in ischemic WT, PrP-/- and PrP+/+ mice, showing that brain accumulation of GFP(+) NPCs was greatly reduced in PrP-/- mice, but increased in PrP+/+ animals. Our results suggest that PrP(c) induces post-ischemic long-term neuroprotection, neurogenesis and angiogenesis in the ischemic brain by inhibiting proteasome activity.
