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

significanceUnderstanding how the brain recovers from cerebral tissue and vascular damage after an ischemic event can help develop new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of stroke.

aimWe investigated cerebral tissue repair and microvasculature regeneration and function after a targeted ischemic stroke. APPROACH: Following photothrombosis occlusion of microvasculature, chronic optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based angiography was used to track ischemic tissue repair and microvasculature regeneration at three different cortical depths and up to 28 days in awake animals. Capillary network orientation analysis was performed to study the structural pattern of newly formed microvasculature. Based on the time-resolved OCT-angiography, we also investigated capillary stalling, which is likely related to ischemic stroke-induced inflammation.

resultsDeeper cerebral tissue was found to have a larger ischemic area than shallower regions at any time point during the course of poststroke recovery, which suggests that cerebral tissue located deep in the cortex is more vulnerable. Regenerated microvasculature had a highly organized pattern at all cortical depths with a higher degree of structural reorganization in deeper regions. Additionally, capillary stalling event analysis revealed that cerebral ischemia augmented stalling events considerably.

conclusionLongitudinal OCT angiography reveals that regenerated capillary network has a highly directional pattern and an increased density and incidence of capillary stalling event.
