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

objectiveThe objective of this study was to identify the signaling pathway that is immediately triggered by status epilepticus (SE) and in turn contributes to the excessive brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/tropomyosin-related kinase receptor B (TrkB) signaling within the hippocampus.

methodsWe used quantitative PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and Western blot analysis to examine gene expression at both mRNA and protein levels in the hippocampus following prolonged SE in mice and rats. Three classical animal models of SE were utilized in the present study to avoid any model- or species-specific findings.

resultsWe showed that both cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and BDNF in the hippocampus were rapidly upregulated after SE onset; however, the induction of COX-2 temporally preceded that of BDNF. Blocking COX-2 activity by selective inhibitor SC-58125 prevented BDNF elevation in the hippocampus following SE; prostaglandin E2 (PGE SIGNIFICANCE: The molecular mechanisms whereby BDNF/TrkB signaling is upregulated in the hippocampus by SE largely remain unknown. Our findings suggest that COX-2 via the PGE
