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

Among the complex pathophysiological events following spinal cord injury (SCI), one of the most important molecular level consequences is a dramatic reduction in neuronal cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels. Many studies shown that rolipram (Rm), a phosphodiesterase IV inhibitor, can protect against secondary cell death, reduce inflammatory cytokine levels and immune cell infiltration, and increase white matter sparing and functional improvement. Previously, we developed a polymeric micelle nanoparticle, poly(lactide-co-glycolide)-graft-polyethylenimine (PgP), for combinatorial delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids and drugs for SCI repair. In this study, we evaluated PgP as an Rm delivery carrier for SCI repair. Rolipram's water solubility was increased ∼6.8 times in the presence of PgP, indicating drug solubilization in the micelle hydrophobic core. Using hypoxia as an in vitro SCI model, Rm-loaded PgP (Rm-PgP) restored cAMP levels and increased neuronal cell survival of cerebellar granular neurons. The potential efficacy of Rm-PgP was evaluated in a rat compression SCI model. After intraspinal injection, 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl indotricarbocyanine Iodide-loaded PgP micelles were retained at the injection site for up to 5 days. Finally, we show that a single injection of Rm-PgP nanoparticles restored cAMP in the SCI lesion site and reduced apoptosis and the inflammatory response. These results suggest that PgP may offer an efficient and translational approach to delivering Rm as a neuroprotectant following SCI.
