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

backgroundMicroglia activation-induced neuroinflammation may contribute to the etiology of depression.

methodsAdult Kunming mice were intraperitoneally injected vehicle or isoginkgetin (4 mg/kg) daily for 14 days before saline or LPS (0.83 mg/kg) administration. Depression-like behavior, neurotransmitter levels, and markers of neuroinflammation were determined. Isoginkgetin effect on LPS-induced microglial activation was then assessed in BV2 cells. Finally, conditioned medium (CM) derived from isoginkgetin-treated BV2 cells was co-cultured with SH-SY5Y cells for 24 h. Cell viability and apoptosis were evaluated.

resultsLPS significantly induced helplessness and anxiety, which were associated with decreased 5-HT, noradrenaline, and dopamine concentrations. Meanwhile, LPS increased microglia M1 hallmark Iba1 expression and serum interleukin (IL)-1β concentration. These changes were attenuated by isoginkgetin treatment. In vitro, isoginkgetin markedly suppressed the production of IL-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, cyclooxygenase-2, inducible nitric oxide, and reactive oxygen species, which are released from LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. More interestingly, CM from isoginkgetin-treated BV2 cells significantly alleviated SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis and restored cell viability compared to LPS-treated group through the inhibition of p38/NF-κB signaling pathway.

conclusionThese data demonstrate that isoginkgetin is an effective therapeutic agent for depression-like behaviors and neuropathological changes via potent anti-inflammatory property.
