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

This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of Tashinone IIA (Tan) on the treatment of ischemic vertigo. Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rats were divided into a SHAM group, a MODEL group, a MODEL+PBS group, a MODEL+Tan (10 mg/kg) group, a MODEL+Tan (20 mg/kg) group, a MODEL+Tan (40 mg/kg) group and a MODEL+Tan (80 mg/kg) group. The escape latency was observed among different groups of rats, while the production of NO/cGMP and the expression of BKCa were measured in vivo and in vitro by H&E staining, Western Blot and IHC assays. While the rats with ischemic vertigo showed prolonged escape latency, the treatment by Tan (40 mg/kg and up) shortened the escape latency in rats with ischemic vertigo. Moreover, the reduced production of NO/cGMP and expression of BKCa protein in the MODEL group were increased by a certain extent upon the treatment of 40 mg/kg or 80 mg/kg Tan. H&E staining of MVN neuron cells collected from different rat groups also validated the positive effects of Tan on the repair of damaged MVN neuron cells. Moreover, the above results were also validated in vitro, as the cells treated with 5 ug/ml and 10 ug/ml Tan increased the levels of NO/cGMP production and BKCa protein expression. At a certain dose, Tan could increase the production of NO and cGMP as well as the expression of BKCa, which would subsequently aid the treatment of ischemic vertigo.
