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

Lots of adrenergic receptors (ARs) are widely present across the auditory pathways and are positioned to affect auditory and vestibular functions. However, noradrenergic regulation in the cochlea has not been well characterized. In this study, a rat model of noise-induced hearing loss was developed to investigate the expression of α2A-adrenergic receptor (AR) after acoustic trauma, then, we investigated the expression of α2A-AR in the developing rat cochlea using immunofluorescence, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting. We found that the expression of α2A-AR significantly increased in rats exposed to noise compared with controls. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that α2A-AR is localized on hair cells (HCs), spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs), and the stria vascularis (SV) in the postnatal developing cochlea from post-natal day (P) 0 to P28. Furthermore, we observed α2A-AR mRNA reached a maximum level at P14 and P28 when compared with P0, while no significant differences in α2A-AR protein levels at the various stages when compared with P0. This study provides direct evidence for the expression of α2A-AR in HCs, SGNs, and the SV of the cochlea, indicating that norepinephrine might play a vital role in hearing function within the cochlea through α2A-AR.
