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

BACKGROUND Status epilepticus (SE) is the most extreme form of seizure. It is a medical and neurological emergency that requires prompt and appropriate treatment and early neuroprotection. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is mainly used for its sedative, analgesic, anxiolytic, and neuroprotective effects with light respiratory depression. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively analyze the metabolic events associated with anticonvulsion and neuroprotection of DEX on pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus rats by LC-MS/MS-based on metabolomics methods combined with histopathology. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this research, rats were divided into 3 groups: a normal group, an SE group, and an SE+DEX group. Hippocampus of rats from each group were collected for further LC-MS/MS-based metabolomic analysis. We collected brains for HE staining and Nissl staining. Multivariate analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed. RESULTS Results of metabolic profiles of the hippocampus tissues of rats proved that dexmedetomidine relieved rats suffering from the status epilepticus by restoring the damaged neuromodulatory metabolism and neurotransmitters, reducing the disturbance in energy, improving oxidative stress, and alleviating nucleic acid metabolism and amino acid in pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus rats. CONCLUSIONS This integral metabolomics research provides an extremely effective method to access the therapeutic effects of DEX. This research will further development of new treats for status epilepticus and provide new insights into the anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects of DEX on status epilepticus.
