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

backgroundGeranylgeranylacetone (GGA) has been recently reported to be centrally active after oral administration and protect against ischemic brain injury. This study was aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of the protective effect of GGA.

methodsIn this study, transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) was established. Neurological score and brain water content were adopted to investigate the role of GGA

resultsOur results indicated that pretreatment with a single oral GGA dose (800 mg/kg) reduced the infarct volume and prevented the neurological impairments after tMCAO. Importantly, GGA ameliorated cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) induced BBB breakdown and rescued tight junction proteins (TJPs). GGA also profoundly decreased neutrophil infiltration, inhibited glial activation and reduced the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Consistently, GGA significantly decreased OGD-induced BBB hyper-permeability
