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

Approximately 20-68% of traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients exhibit trauma-associated olfactory deficits (OD) which can compromise not only the quality of life but also cognitive and neuropsychiatric functions. However, few studies to date have examined the impact of experimental TBI on OD. The present study examined inflammation and neuronal dysfunction in the olfactory bulb (OB) and the underlying mechanisms associated with OD in male mice using a controlled cortical impact (CCI) model. TBI caused a rapid inflammatory response in the OB as early as 24 h post-injury, including elevated mRNA levels of proinflammatory cytokines, increased numbers of microglia and infiltrating myeloid cells, and increased IL1β and IL6 production in these cells. These changes were sustained for up to 90 days after TBI. Moreover, we observed significant upregulation of the voltage-gated proton channel Hv1 and NOX2 expression levels, which were predominantly localized in microglia/macrophages and accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species production. In vivo OB neuronal firing activities showed early neuronal hyperexcitation and later hypo-neuronal activity in both glomerular layer and mitral cell layer after TBI, which were improved in the absence of Hv1. In a battery of olfactory behavioral tests, WT/TBI mice displayed significant OD. In contrast, neither Hv1 KO/TBI nor NOX2 KO/TBI mice showed robust OD. Finally, seven days of intranasal delivery of a NOX2 inhibitor (NOX2ds-tat) ameliorated post-traumatic OD. Collectively, these findings highlight the importance of OB neuronal networks and its role in TBI-mediated OD. Thus, targeting Hv1/NOX2 may be a potential intervention for improving post-traumatic anosmia.
