IKKα contributes to ischemia-induced autophagy after acute cerebral ischemic injury.

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
Background: The function of IκB kinase α (IKKα) in the brain is largely unknown. This study examined the effects of IKKα on autophagy after cerebral ischemia. Methods: Permanent distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (dMCAO) was conducted in C57/BL6 mice. Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) was performed to mimic ischemia injury in neuro-2A (N2A) cells Results: IKKα and LC3B II/I expression levels were increased both in OGD/R treated N2A cells and dMCAO mice. Under the same conditions, IKKβ expression was not altered. IKKα siRNA significantly decreased the infarct volume and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) related to brain edema, and promoted the neurological outcomes after dMCAO. Furthermore, inhibition of IKKα attenuated ischemia- induced the conversion of LC3B I to LC3B II both Conclusions: These findings indicate that IKKα, but not IKKβ, plays a critical role in ischemia-induced autophagy. Inhibition of IKKα protects the brain from ischemia injury and this may have potential benefits in stroke therapy.
