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

Ischemic stroke has become a serious public health problem that causes high rates of death and disability. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomes have shown promising therapeutic results in IS, while the underlying mechanisms need further investigation. Cell and mice models were established through oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) treatment and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion. Exosomes were isolated from BMSCs. Related gene and protein expression was measured by qRT-PCR, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence analysis. The biological functions of treated cells and tissues were analyzed by MTT, ELISA, JC-1, flow cytometry, TTC staining, or TUNEL staining. The interaction of KLF4/lncRNA-ZFAS1 promoter and lncRNA-ZFAS1/FTO was measured by ChIP, dual-luciferase reporter, or RIP assays. The m6A levels of Drp1 were measured by MeRIP-PCR. Mitochondrial staining and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to evaluate the mitochondrial morphology in N2a cells and brain tissues. BMSC-derived exosomes increased the viability of neuronal cells treated with OGD/R while decreasing LDH release, oxidative stress, mitochondrial injury, and apoptosis. Furthermore, these effects were abolished by knockdown of exosomal KLF4. KLF4 increased lncRNA-ZFAS1 through binding to its promoter. LncRNA-ZFAS1 overexpression suppressed the m6A levels of Drp1 and reversed the promoting effect of exosomal KLF4 silencing on mitochondrial injury and the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics by targeting FTO. Exosomal KLF4 alleviated the infarct area, neuronal injury, and apoptosis in MCAO mice through lncRNA-ZFAS1/FTO/Drp1 axis. BMSC-derived exosomal KLF4 promoted lncRNA-ZFAS1 expression to repress Drp1 m6A modification by targeting FTO, thus reducing mitochondrial dysfunction and alleviating neuronal injury in ischemic stroke.
