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

Repeated mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI) has been identified by epidemiology as a high-risk factor for dementia at a later stage in life. Animal models to replicate complex features of human rmTBI and/or to evaluate long-term effects on brain function have not been established. In this study, we used a novel closed-head impact model of engineered rotational acceleration (CHIMERA) to investigate the long-term neuropathological and cognitive functional consequences of rmTBI. Adult C57BL/6 male mice were subjected to CHIMERA for 3 consecutive days 24 h apart. Functional outcomes were assessed by the beam walk and Morris water maze tests. Neuropathology was evaluated by immunostaining of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), amyloid precursor protein (APP), and ionizing calcium-binding adaptor molecule-1 (Iba-1), and by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or Western blotting of GFAP, Iba-1, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Repeated CHIMERA (rCHIMERA) resulted in motor deficits at 3 days, and in learning and memory impairments that were sustained up to 6 months post injury. GFAP and TNF-α gene expression was increased within a week, whereas astrogliosis and microgliosis were induced starting from day 1 up to 6.5 months after rCHIMERA with upregulated GFAP and Iba-1 protein levels. rCHIMERA also induced APP deposition from day 1 to day 7, but this diminished by 1 month. In conclusion, rCHIMERA produces long-lasting cognitive impairments with astrogliosis and microgliosis in mice, suggesting that rCHIMERA can be a useful animal model to study the long-term complications, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanisms, of human rmTBI.
