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

We studied changes in the ultrastructure of synapses and myelin nerve fibers that develop in the penumbra in 4 and 12 h and 2 and 4 days after modeling infarction in the frontoparietal cortex in rats. Ischemic stroke was induced by injection of a photosensitive dye into their bloodstream followed by illumination of the brain surface with a halogen lamp. Visible ultrastructural changes were observed in the penumbra zone, namely in the axodendritic and axospinous synapses; they consisted in polymorphism and disorganization of synaptic vesicles, mitochondrial swelling, swelling and vacuolization of the postsynaptic fragments of dendrites, and shortening and osmiophilia of the active zone. In the presynaptic terminals, clear-cut signs of transformation were observed only in 2 and 4 days after infarction modeling. These terminals were located at the ends of the degenerated myelinated axons of necrotic neurons. These findings demonstrate irreversible changes in the ultrastructure of synapses in the penumbra in 2-4 days after infarction and indicate the necessity of early treatment of strokes.
