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
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a global cerebrovascular disease with high disability and mortality, which has no effective therapy. Studies have demonstrated that astrocyte-derived exosomes (ADEXs) provided neuroprotection in experimental stroke models. Nevertheless, the role of exosomes derived from oxygen-glucose-deprivation/reoxygenation-stimulated astrocytes (OGD/R-stimulated astrocytes; OGD/R-ADEXs) in AIS remains largely unknown. Here, we found that OGD/R-ADEXs significantly reduced OGD/R-induced neuronal death and promoted neuronal autophagy. These effects were reversed when astrocytes were pretreated with GW4869, an exosome secretion inhibitor, or when hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hrs) was knocked down. Neuroprotection was also observed during treatment with OGD/R-ADEXs in vivo. Further studies showed that Nampt, played a vital effect in the regulation of autophagy, was significantly increased in OGD/R-ADEXs. Knockdown of Nampt in astrocytes abolished the above-mentioned effects of OGD/R-ADEXs. Mechanistically, Nampt increased autophagy and decreased cell death by modulating AMPK/mTOR signaling, which recognized as a key signaling pathway of autophagy after AIS. Collectively, these results showed that Nampt released by OGD/R-ADEXs ameliorated acute ischemic stroke during neuronal injury by targeting AMPK/mTOR signaling to induce autophagy. Our study revealed a new key factor in the secretion of exosomes by OGD/R astrocytes, which regulated autophagy and induced neuroprotection in a mouse stroke model.
