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

backgroundIschemic stroke is a medical emergency that primarily affects the elderly. A complex immune response in the post-stroke brain constitutes a key component of stroke pathophysiology. This study aimed to determine how stroke affects immune cell populations in the aged brain based on molecular profiles of individual cells.

methodsSingle-cell RNA sequencing and a new transient ischemic stroke mouse model with late reperfusion were used.

resultsWe generated, for the first time, a composite picture of immune cell populations in the stroke aged brain at single-cell resolution. We discovered at least 6 microglial subsets in the stroke aged brain, including a potentially stroke-specific subtype. Moreover, we identified major cell subpopulations formed by infiltrated myeloid cells after stroke, and revealed their unique molecular profiles.

conclusionsThis study provided the first scRNA-seq data set for immune cells in the stroke aged brain, and offered novel insights into post-stroke immune cell heterogeneity.
