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

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) exacerbate stroke-induced cell damage. We found that ShcA, a protein that regulates ROS, is highly expressed in a Rose Bengal photothrombosis model. We investigated whether ShcA is essential for mitophagy in ROS-induced cellular damage and determined whether ROS exacerbate mitochondrial dysfunction via ShcA protein expression. Ischemic stroke was generated by Rose Bengal photothrombosis in mice. To silence ShcA protein expression in the mouse brain, ShcA-targeting siRNA-encapsulated nanoparticles were intrathecally injected into the cisterna magna. Upon staining with antibodies against ShcA counterpart caspase-3 or NeuN, we found that the ShcA protein expression was increased in apoptotic neurons. In addition, mitochondrial dysfunction and excessive mitophagy were evident in photothrombotic stroke tissue. Infarct volumes were significantly reduced, and neurological deficits were diminished in the ShcA siRNA nanoparticle-treated group, compared with the negative control siRNA nanoparticle-treated group. We confirmed that the reduction of ShcA expression by nanoparticle treatment rescued the expression of genes, associated with mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy mediation in a stroke model. This study suggests that the regulation of ShcA protein expression can be a therapeutic target for reducing brain damage with mitochondrial dysfunction caused by thrombotic infarction.
