The role of MLC901 in reducing VEGF as a vascular permeability marker in rats with spinal cord injury.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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: Damaged neural tissue caused by SCI could induce vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that can worsen the condition in the late phase by increasing vascular permeability, thus inducing tissue oedema, which can worsen the infarction. MLC 901 has been widely used in Asia for stroke patients because its mechanism is known to down-regulate VEGF levels in ischemic tissue. Methods: Ten Sprague-Dawley rats were used in this experiment. To create a severe spinal cord injury in animal models. The animals were then randomly divided into two groups. MLC 901 was given to the first group, which was the intervention group, and placebo to the second group, which was the control group. Results: This study showed a decrease in the mean VEGF mRNA expression in the group given MLC 901 compared to the control group, which had a very high mean VEGF mRNA expression starting after 1 h of administration of MLC 901 until day 14 after spinal cord injury. In addition, there was a decrease in VEGF levels in the MLC 901 group compared to the control group from 3 h after spinal cord injury (1 h after MLC 901 administration) to 14 days after spinal cord injury. Conclusion: It can be concluded that administration of MLC 901 can reduce vascular permeability, one of the mechanisms that is thought to occur is to reduce VEGF levels. MLC 901 also maintains the neuroprotective effect provided by VEGF by maintaining this level above the basal level until day 14.
