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

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX)-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) serve an important role in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, the mechanism by which ROS generation is regulated has not yet been fully elucidated. The present study aimed to explore the role of transforming growth factor-β signaling in ROS generation. Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to I/R injury and PC-12 cells were transfected with small interfering RNA against activin receptor-like kinase (ALK)5 or hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). The results indicated that I/R or H/R significantly increased ALK5 expression, SMAD2/3 phosphorylation and NOX2/4 expression and activity, concomitant with ROS generation and apoptosis. In addition, ALK5 knockdown significantly reversed changes induced by H/R treatment in PC-12 cells. These results suggest that ALK5/SMAD2/3 signaling serves a key role in oxidative stress. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that ALK5/SMAD2/3 activation is associated with the regulation of NOX2/4 expression and exacerbates I/R injury.
