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

Cerebral ischemia is associated with a lack of oxygen and high-energy phosphates within the brain tissue, leading to irreversible cell injury. Visualizing these cellular injuries has long been a focus of experimental stroke research with application of immunohistochemistry as one of the standard approaches. It is, however, a destructive imaging technique with non-isotropic resolution, as only the two-dimensional tissue structure of a thin brain section is visualized using optical microscopy and specific stainings. Herein, we extend the structural analysis of mouse brain tissue after cerebral ischemia to the third dimension via microfocus computed tomography (µ-CT). Contrast of the weakly absorbing unstained brain tissue is enhanced by phase contrast. We show that recordings at two different magnifications and fields of view can be combined as a single approach for visualization of the associated structural alterations at isotropic resolution, from the level of the whole organ down to single cells.
