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

Ammonia toxicity in the brain primarily affects astrocytes via a mechanism in which oxidative stress (OS), is coupled to the imbalance between glutamatergic and GABAergic transmission. Ammonia also downregulates the astrocytic N system transporter SN1 that controls glutamine supply from astrocytes to neurons for the replenishment of both neurotransmitters. Here, we tested the hypothesis that activation of Nrf2 is the process that links ammonia-induced OS formation in astrocytes to downregulation and inactivation of SN1 and that it may involve the formation of a complex between Nrf2 and Sp1. Treatment of cultured cortical mouse astrocytes with ammonia (5 mM NH
