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
Glucose transporter (GLUT)3 up-regulation is an adaptive response activated to prevent cellular damage when brain metabolic energy is reduced. Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory features that protects neurons against damage induced in cerebral ischemia. Since transcription factors sensitive to oxidative stress and inflammation modulate GLUT3 expression, the purpose of this work was to assess the effect of resveratrol on GLUT3 expression levels after ischemia. Male Wistar rats were subjected to 2 h of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by different times of reperfusion. Resveratrol (1.9 mg/kg; i. p.) was administered at the onset of the restoration of the blood flow. Quantitative-PCR and Western blot showed that MCAO provoked a substantial increase in GLUT3 expression in the ipsilateral side to the lesion of the cerebral cortex. Immunofluorescence assays indicated that GLUT3 levels were upregulated in astrocytes. Additionally, an important increase in GLUT3 occurred in other cellular types (e.g., damaged neurons, microglia, or infiltrated macrophages). Immunodetection of the microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) showed that MCAO induced severe damage to the neuronal population. However, the administration of resveratrol at the time of reperfusion resulted in injury reduction. Resveratrol also prevented the MCAO-induced increase of GLUT3 expression. In conclusion, resveratrol protects neurons from damage induced by ischemia and prevents GLUT3 upregulation in the damaged brain that might depend on AMPK activation.
