Inhibition of PAR-2 Attenuates Neuroinflammation and Improves Short-Term Neurocognitive Functions Via ERK1/2 Signaling Following Asphyxia-Induced Cardiac Arrest in Rats.

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.
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
objectiveGlobal cerebral ischemia-induced neuroinflammation causes neurofunctional impairment following cardiac arrest. Previous studies have demonstrated that the activation of protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2) contributes to neuroinflammation. In the present study, we aimed to determine the potential treatment effect of PAR-2 inhibition against neuroinflammation in the setting of asphyxial CA (ACA) in rats.
methodsA total of 116 adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into Sham (n = 18) and ACA (n = 98) groups. Time course, short-term outcome, and mechanism studies were conducted. All drugs were delivered intranasally. The effect of PAR-2 inhibitor FSLLRY-NH2 on neurocognitive functions was assessed by neurologic deficit score, number of seizures, and T-maze test, while hippocampal neuronal degeneration was evaluated by Fluoro-Jade C staining after ACA. Western blotting was performed for the mechanism study at 24 h following ACA. Selective PAR-2 agonist (AC55541) and ERK1/2 inhibitor (PD98059) were used for intervention.
resultsInhibition of PAR-2 decreased neuroinflammation, reduced the number of degenerating hippocampal neurons and improved neurocognitive functions following ACA. PAR-2 activator alone exerted opposite effects to PAR-2 inhibitor. PAR-2 mediated the augmented brain levels of proinflammatory cytokines by promoting the phosphorylation of ERK1/2.
conclusionsPAR-2 inhibition diminished neuroinflammation and thereby reduced hippocampal neuronal degeneration and neurocognitive impairment following ACA. This effect was at least partly mediated via the PAR-2/ERK1/2 signaling.
