Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 67 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

One of the leading causes of neurological mortality, disability, and dementia worldwide is cerebral ischemia. Among the many pathological phenomena, the immune system plays an important role in the development of post-ischemic degeneration of the brain, leading to the development of neuroinflammatory changes in the brain. After cerebral ischemia, the developing neuroinflammation causes additional damage to the brain cells, but on the other hand it also plays a beneficial role in repair activities. Inflammatory mediators are sources of signals that stimulate cells in the brain and promote penetration, e.g., T lymphocytes, monocytes, platelets, macrophages, leukocytes, and neutrophils from systemic circulation to the brain ischemic area, and this phenomenon contributes to further irreversible ischemic brain damage. In this review, we focus on the issues related to the neuroinflammation that occurs in the brain tissue after ischemia, with particular emphasis on ischemic stroke and its potential treatment strategies.
