Development of a cyclophosphamide stress test to predict resilience to aging in mice.
Article in GeroScience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The concept of resilience, defined as the ability to recover from stress, is a potential platform to predict healthy aging. However, specific stress tests for resilience have not yet been fully established in humans so investigations in animal models are of interest. The chemotherapeutic drug cyclophosphamide (Cyp) was selected as a chemical stressor to investigate resilience response in C57Bl/6 male mice at 4, 15, and 28 months of age. Following a single intraperitoneal injection of Cyp (100 mg/kg), tail blood was collected for counting white blood cells (WBC) every other day for 25 days, and physiological performance tests performed. Cyp induced a consistent pattern in neutrophil count in all three age groups, with a nadir at day 5 and a rebound at day 7 with different rates in each group. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) showed an age-dependent rebound response 7 days after Cyp injection, with a similar pattern of decline back toward baseline. Mice in the 15-month age group with high pre-injection Cyp NLR had significantly higher total WBC counts after Cyp injection compared with mice with low pre-injection Cyp NLR, indicating a correlation between NLR and Cyp-altered WBC counts. In addition, mice with high pre-injection Cyp NLR showed significant learning impairment compared with mice with low pre-injection Cyp NLR, suggesting low NRL intensity can predict resilience to age-related cognitive decline. These observations provide the rationale to translate findings from the mouse to humans in developing in vitro Cyp stress tests.
