Seizure Characteristics and Background Amplitude-Integrated Electroencephalography Activity in Neonatal Rats Subjected to Hypoxia-Ischemia.

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
Objective: Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a major cause of epilepsy and chronic neurologic morbidity in premature infants. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of acute seizures and the pattern of background activity on amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) in neonatal rats with HIE. Methods: Hypoxia-ischemia (HI) was induced in postnatal day (P) 3 neonatal rats (n = 12) by ligation of the left carotid artery and exposure to airtight hypoxia for 2 h. Data regarding seizure type, frequency, and duration and those related to neurobehavioral development were collected, and the integrated power of background EEG was analyzed to evaluate the effect of HI. Results: All neonatal rats in the HI group experienced frequent seizures during hypoxia, and 83.3% of rats (10/12) experienced seizures immediately after hypoxia. Seizure frequency and duration gradually decreased with increasing age. The mortality rate of the HI group was 8.33% (1/12); 120 h after HI induction, only 27.3% (3/11) of pups had low-frequency and short-duration electrographic seizures, respectively. HI rats, which presented seizure activities 96 h after HI insult, exhibited an increase in righting reflex time and a decrease in forelimb grip reflex time. Background EEG was significantly inhibited during HI induction and immediately after hypoxia and gradually recovered 72 h after hypoxia. Conclusion: Seizures caused by HI brain damage in premature infants can be simulated in the P3 neonatal rat model.
