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

objectiveHemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a life-threatening complication of stroke. Whether changes in gut microbial composition underlie the development of HT remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether the gut microbiota is altered in HT rats and examine the association between these changes and inflammatory responses.

methodsHT was successfully established in rats injected with 50% glucose (6 ml/Kg, i.p.) 15 min before middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO, 90 min occlusion) with reperfusion. After 5 days, rats were euthanized, and their brains used to estimate infarct volume. The inflammatory factors, the analysis of gut microbiota, and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) were assessed.

resultsIn contrast with non-HT rats, gut microbiota sequencing showed an elevation in the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria in HT rats. Total SCFAs, especially butyrate and valeric acid, were significantly lower in the cecal contents of HT rats than in those of non-HT rats. Hyperglycemia-induced HT exacerbation was not observed when rats were treated with antibiotics, suggesting that altered microbiota play a critical role in hyperglycemic HT pathogenesis. Furthermore, rats whose gut was colonized with HT rat microbiota showed increased susceptibility to HT.

conclusionThis study provides important information about the gut microbiota profiles and SCFA levels of MCAO rats with HT or non-HT. The susceptibility to HT in MCAO rats is associated with inflammation and gut microbiota modulation.
