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

backgroundNeuroprotection combined with neuroregeneration may be critical for optimizing functional recovery in neonatal encephalopathy. To investigate the neurogenic response to hypoxia-ischemia (HI) followed by normothermia (38.5 °C) or three different hypothermic temperatures (35, 33.5, or 30 °C) in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the neonatal piglet.

methodsFollowing transient cerebral HI and resuscitation, 28 newborn piglets were randomized to: normothermia or whole-body cooling to 35 °C, 33.5 °C, or 30 °C during 2-26 h (all n = 7). At 48 h, piglets were euthanized and SVZ obtained to evaluate its cellularity, pattern of cell death, radial glia length, doublecortin (DCX, neuroblasts) expression, and Ki67 (cell proliferation) and Ki67/Sox2 (neural stem/progenitor dividing) cell counts.

resultsNormothermic piglets showed lower total (Ki67+) and neural stem/progenitor dividing (Ki67+Sox2+) cell counts when compared to hypothermic groups. Cooling to 33.5 °C obtained the highest values of SVZ cellularity, radial glia length processes, neuroblast chains area and DCX immunohistochemistry. Cooling to 30 °C, however, revealed decreased cellularity in the lateral SVZ and shorter radial glia processes when compared with 33.5 °C.

conclusionsIn a neonatal piglet model, hypothermia to 33.5 °C modulates the neurogenic response of the SVZ after HI, highlighting the potential beneficial effect of hypothermia to 33.5 °C on endogenous neurogenesis and the detrimental effect of overcooling beyond this threshold. IMPACT: Neuroprotection combined with neuroregeneration may be critical for optimizing functional recovery in neonatal encephalopathy. Hypothermia may modulate neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the neonatal hypoxic-ischemic piglet. Cooling to 33.5 °C obtained the highest values of SVZ cellularity, radial glia length processes, neuroblast chains area and doublecortin immunohistochemistry; cooling to 30 °C, however, revealed decreased cellularity and shorter radial glia processes. In a neonatal piglet model, therapeutic hypothermia (33.5 °C) modulates the neurogenic response of the SVZ after hypoxia-ischemia, highlighting also the detrimental effect of overcooling beyond this threshold.
