α-Helical protein absorption at post-traumatic epileptic foci monitored by Fourier transform infrared mapping.
Article in Journal of biosciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tissue analysis by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) imaging can determine the biodistribution of molecules, without pre-analytical modification. We aimed to study the infrared spectroscopic changes of α-helical proteins at post-traumatic epileptic (PTE) foci by FTIR. FITR mapping was applied to detect α-helical proteins in rat brain tissue samples with post-traumatic epilepsy. Histological examination of brain sections showed that the rat model of PTE was successfully established. At the PTE foci, high α-helical absorption regions were evident, where the color difference and absorption were significantly different from those in the low-absorption regions. This provided a distinctive and characteristic pattern at the site of lesions. The use of FTIR imaging means that it is possible to measure the molecular structural changes resulting from PTE pathologies in tissues, providing a novel adjunct to conventional pathological diagnostic techniques.
