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

Since the treatment window of thrombolytic therapy for stroke is limited, new therapy remains to be developed. We have recently developed low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) therapy to improve cognitive dysfunction in mouse models of vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Here, we further aimed to examine whether our LIPUS therapy improves neurological recovery from ischemic stroke, and if so, to elucidate the mechanisms involved. In a mouse model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), we applied LIPUS (32 cycles, 193 mW/cm
