Stress Granules Modulate SYK to Cause Tau-Associated Neurocognitive Deterioration in 5XFAD Mouse After Anesthesia and Surgery.
Article in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia. However, no curative therapy has been found effective to slow down the process of AD. It is reported that anesthesia and surgery will induce neurocognitive deterioration in AD, but the mechanism is not quite clear. In this study, we aim to compare the cognitive impairment between 5XFAD transgenic (Tg) mice and its littermate (LM) after isoflurane anesthesia and surgery to clarify the specific impacts of anesthesia and surgery on individuals with AD and to explore the mechanisms.
methodsWe performed abdominal surgery in cognitively impaired, 4-month-old female 5XFAD mice and LM control mice. Isoflurane anesthesia (1.4%) was induced and maintained over 2 h. Open field and fear conditioning tests were conducted on 1, 3 and 7 days after anesthesia and surgery. The total distance, velocity and freezing time were the major outcomes. P-tau (AT8), tau oligomers (T22), stress granules (SGs), the SYK tyrosine kinase and p-SYK in the hippocampus at postoperative day 1 were evaluated by Western Blot assays. The colocalization of SGs, SYK, p-SYK, and neurons in the hippocampus section was assessed using qualitative immunofluorescence.
resultsIn the open field test, no difference between the distance moved and the velocity of LM mice and 5XFAD Tg mice were found on day 1 after anesthesia and surgery. 5XFAD Tg mice exhibited reduced freezing time of fear conditioning context test on postoperative day 3, but not on day 7; the LM mice showed no changes in FCTs. Furthermore, p-tau, tau oligomers, SGs, SYK and p-SYK were evident in the hippocampus region of 5XFAD Tg mice on a postoperative day 1. In addition, SGs, SYK, p-SYK were colocalized with hippocampus neurons, as shown by immunofluorescence.
conclusionThis study demonstrates that anesthesia and surgery may induce tau-associated neurocognitive deterioration in individuals with AD. The mechanism under it may be associated with SGs and the tyrosine kinase, SYK. After anesthesia and surgery, in 5XFAD Tg mice, SGs were formed and SYK was phosphorylated, which may contribute to the phosphorylation of tau protein. This study provided hints that individuals with AD may be more vulnerable to anesthesia and surgery.
