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

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a type of metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, which can lead to different degrees of cognitive decline. Therefore, it is crucial to explore the molecular biological mechanisms of neuronal injury. In this study, we investigated the effect of high glucose on eIF2α expression and the mechanism of neuronal injury, and on this basis, the protective mechanism of resveratrol is explored. Treatment with 50 mM high glucose in cortical neurons increased the levels of eIF2α phosphorylation; the expressions of ATF4 and CHOP increased. ISRIB alleviated high glucose-induced neuronal injury by reducing eIF2α phosphorylation when neurons were pretreated with ISRIB before high glucose treatment. Compared with the high glucose-treated group, resveratrol pretreatment reduced eIF2α phosphorylation, the levels of its downstream molecules ATF4 and CHOP, and LDH release. Resveratrol reduced the level of cortical eIF2α phosphorylation and the expression of its downstream molecules in DM mice and improved the ability of spatial memory and learning in DM mice without affecting anxiety and motor performance. Meanwhile, resveratrol modulated the expression of Bcl-2 protein and also effectively decreased the DM-induced up-regulation of Bax, caspase-3, p53, p21, and p16. Taken together, these results suggested that high glucose caused neuronal injury through the eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway which was inhibited by ISRIB and resveratrol. The present study indicates that eIF2α is the new target for the treatment of high glucose-induced neuronal injury, and resveratrol is a potential new medicine to treat diabetes encephalopathy.
