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

Background: Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is associated with several biological processes. Ischemic stroke has the characteristics of high morbidity and mortality. Herein, we aimed to explore whether Dex ameliorates ischemia-induced injury and determine its mechanism. Methods: Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blotting were used to measure gene and protein expression. Cellular viability and proliferation were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assays, respectively. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. An oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation model of SK-N-SH and SH-SY5Y cells was constructed. A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was also built to assess Dex function Results: We found that Dex positively and dose-dependently regulated Sox11 expression and prevented damage caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R), enhancing cell viability and proliferation and reducing apoptosis in SK-N-SH and SH-SY5Y cells. The overexpression of Sox11 antagonized OGD/R-induced SK-N-SH and SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis and promoted cell growth in vitro. Furthermore, cell proliferation was decreased and cell apoptosis was increased after Sox11 knockdown in Dex-treated SK-N-SH and SH-SY5Y cells. We demonstrated that Dex prevented OGD/R-induced cell injury by up-regulating Sox11. Furthermore, we also confirmed that Dex protected rat from ischemia-induced injury in the MCAO model. Conclusions: The role of Dex in cell viability and survival was verified in this study. Moreover, Dex protected neurons from MCAO-induced injury by up-regulating the expression of Sox11. Our research proposes a potential drug to improve the functional recovery of stroke patients in the clinic.
