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

Dl-3-n-butylphthalide is used to treat mild and moderate acute ischemic stroke. However, the precise underlying mechanism requires further investigation. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of Dl-3-n-butylphthalide action by various means. We used hydrogen peroxide to induce injury to PC12 cells and RAW264.7 cells to mimic neuronal oxidative stress injury in stroke in vitro and examined the effects of Dl-3-n-butylphthalide. We found that Dl-3-n-butylphthalide pretreatment markedly inhibited the reduction in viability and reactive oxygen species production in PC12 cells caused by hydrogen peroxide and inhibited cell apoptosis. Furthermore, Dl-3-n-butylphthalide pretreatment inhibited the expression of the pro-apoptotic genes Bax and Bnip3. Dl-3-n-butylphthalide also promoted ubiquitination and degradation of hypoxia inducible factor 1α, the key transcription factor that regulates Bax and Bnip3 genes. These findings suggest that Dl-3-n-butylphthalide exhibits a neuroprotective effect on stroke by promoting hypoxia inducible factor-1α ubiquitination and degradation and inhibiting cell apoptosis.
