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

Brain ischemia is one of the most common causes of death and disability worldwide, which usually happens through diminished blood supply to the tissue. Cell therapy and treatments using trophic factors are some of the new methods to protect brain cells against damage. Specific properties of Sertoli cells (SCs) make them suitable for improving neurological disorders. This study is to evaluate possible neuroprotective effects of SCs transplantation on ischemic damage. Rats were divided into three experimental groups including sham, control, and SCs-treated group. In this study, SCs were isolated from testis of rats and were transplanted into the right striatum by using stereotaxic surgery. After a week, ischemic surgery was performed. Twenty-four hours later, rats were scarified and different regions of the brain including the cortex, the piriform cortex-amygdala (Pir-Amy), and the striatum were collected and preserved in - 80 °C for further investigations. This study demonstrates that SCs transplantation can reduce brain ischemia deficits and increase superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities. It also decreases malondialdehyde production, which is the main product of lipid peroxidation. SCs improve ischemic behavioral disorder and reduce brain edema, blood-brain barrier permeability, and infarct volume. It seems that transplantation of SCs can protect neural cells against ischemia by decreasing oxidative stress.
