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

CDK5 activation promotes ischemic neuronal death in stroke, with the recognized activation mechanism being calpain-dependent p35 cleavage to p25. Here we reported that CDK5-Tyr15 phosphorylation by zinc induced CDK5 activation in brain ischemic injury. CDK5 activation and CDK5-Tyr15 phosphorylation were observed in the hippocampus of the rats that had been subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion, both of which were reversed by pretreatment with zinc chelator; while p35 cleavage and calpain activation in ischemia were not reversed. Zinc incubation resulted in CDK5-Tyr15 phosphorylation and CDK5 activation, without increasing p35 cleavage in cultured cells. Site mutation experiment confirmed that zinc-induced CDK5 activation was dependent on Tyr15 phosphorylation. Further exploration showed that Src kinase contributed to zinc-induced Tyr15 phosphorylation and CDK5 activation. Src kinase inhibition or expression of an unphosphorylable mutant Y15F-CDK5 abolished Tyr15 phosphorylation, prevented CDK5 activation and protected hippocampal neurons from ischemic insult in rats. We conclude that zinc-induced CDK5-Tyr15 phosphorylation underlies CDK5 activation and promotes ischemic neuronal death in stroke.
