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

Excitotoxicity is the underlying mechanism for all acute neuronal injury, from cerebral ischemia, status epilepticus, traumatic CNS injury, and hypoglycemia. It causes morphological neuronal necrosis, and it triggers a programmed cell death program. Excessive calcium entry through the NMDA-receptor-operated cation channel activates two key enzymes-calpain I and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). Calpain I, a cytosolic enzyme, translocates to mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes, causing release of cytochrome c, endonuclease G, and apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) from mitochondria and DNase II and cathepsins B and D from lysosomes. These all translocate to neuronal nuclei, creating DNA damage, which activates poly(ADP) ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1) to form excessive amounts of poly(ADP) ribose (PAR) polymers, which translocate to mitochondrial membranes, causing release of truncated AIF (tAIF). The free radicals that are released from mitochondria and peroxynitrite, formed from nitric oxide (NO) from nNOS catalysis of L-arginine to L-citrulline, damage mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes and DNA. The end result is the necrotic death of neurons. Another programmed necrotic pathway, necroptosis, occurs through a parallel pathway. As investigators of necroptosis do not recognize the excitotoxic pathway, it is unclear to what extent each contributes to programmed neuronal necrosis. We are studying the extent to which each contributes to acute neuronal necrosis and the extent of cross-talk between these pathways.
