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

backgroundRecently, there has been much more interest in the use of medicinal plants in search of novel therapies for human neurodegenerative diseases such as epilepsy. In the present study, we investigated the anticonvulsant effects of

methodsTotally, 260 mice were divided into 26 groups (n=10). Thirty minutes after treatment with the hydroalcoholic extract of

resultsThe VHE (400 mg/kg) significantly enhanced latency to the first generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCs) induced by PTZ in comparison to the control group (P<0.001). All 3 concentrations of the EAF (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg) significantly prolonged the latency of PTZ-induced seizures compared to the control group. Additionally, all the concentrations of the NBF (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg) made a significant increment in GTCs latency induced by PTZ in comparison to the control group. On the other hand, all the concentrations of the VHE, EAF, and NBF significantly reduced the incidence of hind-limb tonic extension (HLTE) induced by MES, when compared to the control group.
