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

Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (LGR5), a well-characterized marker of stem cell and cancer stem cells (CSCs), is best known as a transmembrance receptor for increases canonical Wnt signaling amplitude. In addition, in some types of human cancers, LGR5 has been found to be overexpressed. However, the distribution and function of LGR5 in spinal cord injury (SCI) are still unknown. In this study, we examined LGR5 expression and cellular localization in rats following acute SCI. Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry exhibited an important upregulation of LGR5 in injury spinal cord. Double immunofluorescence staining showed that LGR5 was co-expressed with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Moreover, we detected that PCNA had colocalization with LGR5 and GFAP after SCI. In the vitro model, we could find the enhanced expression of LGR5 in the primary astrocyte which was induced by the lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In particular, we found the significantly decreased ability for proliferation when this LGR5-specific siRNA transfected primary astrocytes. In a word, this is the first description of LGR5 expression in spinal cord injury. These data indicated that LGR5 might be of great significance in CNS pathophysiology after SCI.
