Article in Neurochemical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Epilepsy is a common neurological disease. The dysregulated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in epileptogenesis. The aim of this research is to explore the role and mechanism of lncRNA zinc finger antisense 1 (ZFAS1) in status epilepticus (SE)-induced hippocampal neurons injury. SE mice model was established and primary hippocampal neurons were isolated. The expression levels of ZFAS1 and microRNA-421 (miR-421) were detected in hippocampus and hippocampal neurons via quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Hippocampal neurons viability, apoptosis and autophagy were analyzed via Cell Counting Kit-8, flow cytometry and western blot. The target relationship between ZFAS1 and miR-421 was analyzed via dual-luciferase reporter assay. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway was blocked by LY294002 and related protein levels were detected via western blot. ZFAS1 expression was elevated in hippocampus and hippocampal neurons from SE mice. Knockdown of ZFAS1 increased SE hippocampal neurons viability and decreased apoptosis and autophagy. ZFAS1 could sponge miR-421. MiR-421 expression was declined in SE mice tissues and cells. Down-regulation of miR-421 abolished the suppressive effect of ZFAS1 knockdown on hippocampal neurons apoptosis and autophagy. Silencing of ZFAS1 induced activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway by up-regulating miR-421. Inhibition of the PI3K/AKT pathway reversed the effect of ZFAS1 knockdown on SE hippocampal neurons apoptosis and autophagy. Interference of ZFAS1 attenuated hippocampal neurons apoptosis and autophagy in SE by increasing miR-421 and activating the PI3K/AKT pathway, indicating a new mechanism for understanding the pathogenesis of SE.
