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

Spinal cord ischemia and reperfusion (SCIR) injury can induce autophagy, which is involved in the survival of neurons. However, whether autophagy plays a neuroprotective or a detrimental role in SCIR injury remains controversial. Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1), an endothelial growth factor, has been shown to have neuroprotective effects. The present study aimed to explore the neuroprotective mechanisms of Ang-1 in neuronal cells in a rat model of SCIR injury in vivo. Ang-1 protein and rapamycin were injected intrathecally. Basso Beattie Bresnahan (BBB) scoring and hematoxylin and eosin staining were used to assess the degree of SCIR injury. Proteins that reflected the level of autophagy expression, such as Beclin-1 and LC3, were evaluated by western blotting. The results indicated that SCIR injury resulted in loss in lower limb motor function. Ang-1 protein inhibited the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3, which improved the BBB score and alleviated spinal cord injury. In contrast, rapamycin, an autophagy activator, caused the opposite effect. This study provides evidence that Ang-1 plays a neuroprotective role by inhibiting of autophagy expression in SCIR injury. Overall, findings could be useful for the treatment of SCIR injury.
