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

In a previous study using a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, we found that 3'-Daidzein sulfonate sodium (DSS), a derivative of daidzein, exerts neuroprotective effects by alleviating brain edema and reducing levels of interleukin (IL)-6. The present study was designed to further examine the potential mechanisms of the neuroprotective properties of DSS in a rat model of cerebral I/R injury. We found that treatment with DSS ameliorated neurological deficit, infarct size, and cerebral water content in rats with cerebral I/R injury. Moreover, treatment with DSS significantly reduced the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in serum and in the ischemic penumbra. Additionally, DSS treatment increased the expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha 7 (α7nAChR), and inhibited the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein, phosphorylated p65 nuclear factor κB, and phosphorylated inhibitor of NF-κBα, suggesting that DSS provides neuroprotection by suppressing inflammatory responses after focal cerebral I/R injury. Notably, α-bungarotoxin, an antagonist of α7nAChR, reversed the neuroprotective effects of DSS after cerebral I/R injury, suggesting that inhibition of α7nAChR expression is sufficient for reversal of the neuroprotective effects of DSS. In conclusion, we found that DSS treatment provides neuroprotection by promoting α7nAChR expression in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia, thus establishing α7nAChR as a potential therapeutic target in cerebral I/R injury.
