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

introductionBased on beneficial effects of aspirin and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on myelin repair, in a preset study, effects of co-administration of aspirin and conditioned medium from adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSC-CM) on functional recovery of optic pathway, demyelination levels, and astrocytes' activation were evaluated in a lysolecithin (LPC)-induced demyelination model of optic chiasm.

methodsLPC (1%, 2 µL) was injected into the rat optic chiasm and animals underwent daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections of ADSCs-CM and oral gavage of aspirin at a dose of 25 mg/kg for 14 days post LPC injection. The conductivity of visual signals was assessed using visual evoked potential recordings (VEPs) before LPC injection and on days 7 and 14 post lesion. Immunostaining against PDGFRα as oligodendrocyte precursor cells marker, MOG as mature myelin marker, and GFAP as astrocyte marker was performed on brain sections at day 14 post LPC injection. FluoroMyelin staining was also used to measure the extent of demyelination areas.

resultsOur results showed that administration of ADSCs-CM and aspirin significantly reduced the latency of VEP waves in LPC receiving animals. In addition, demyelination levels and GFAP expressing cells were attenuated while the number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells significantly increased in rats treated with ADSCs-CM and aspirin.

conclusionOverall, our results suggest that co-administration of ADSCs-CM and aspirin improves the functional recovery of optic pathway through amelioration of astrocyte activation and attenuation of demyelination level.
