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

Status epilepticus (SE) is a common neurological condition associated with high rates of mortality and permanent brain injury. SE usually leads to neuronal death which may be accompanied by edema, epileptogenesis and learning impairment. Aquaporin-4 (AQP4), is a transmembrane water channel protein in the neuropil of the central nervous system that has an important role in water transport in the brain; AQP4 expression is altered in many pathological conditions such as changes in the blood- brain barrier and/or astrocytic activation, including seizures. AQP4 was shown to be downregulated in the piriform cortex and the hippocampus after SE. Although it is normally expressed at a high level in the cerebellum, little is known about AQP4 levels in the cerebellum following SE. We addressed this in the present study in a mouse model of pilocarpine-induced SE. We found that AQP4 expression was reduced from 3 h to 3 days after SE, with the levels recovering on day 7. Moreover, mice in the acute post-SE stages exhibited impaired motor coordination and learning. These results indicate that cerebellar damage following SE involves changes in AQP4 expression.
