Lu Tong Ke Li protects neurons from injury by regulating inflammation in rats with brain trauma.
Article in Ibrain, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Currently, there is no effective therapy for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the protective effect of Lu Tong Ke Li (LTKL), a Chinese medicine, for TBI in experimental animals. The TBI rat model was induced using the modified Feeney's protocol. The rats were divided into four groups: Sham group, Control group, LTKL lower-dose group (LTL, 2 g/kg/day, p.o.), and LTKL higher-dose group (LTH, 4 g/kg/day, p.o.). The Neurological Severity Score (NSS) was used to examine neurological function. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed to check the brain tissue lesions in rats. Cell apoptosis in the damaged area was evaluated using the Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase deoxy-UTP-nick end labeling assay. Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to investigate the expression of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), and interleukin 10 (IL-10). The TBI rat model was successfully constructed. Neurological function was enhanced at 14, 21, and 28 days post TBI in the LTH groups, indicated by gradually decreased NSS scores. Administration of LTH led to fewer brain defects in the damaged area, and the number of apoptosis cells in the brain injury area markedly decreased. LTKL treatment led to upregulation of IL-10 expression and downregulation of TNF-α and IL-1β expressions at the molecular level. LTKL can improve the neurobehavior of TBI. The neuroprotective effect was probably related to regulation of inflammation cytokines. Our results provide crucial evidence of the potentially useful application of LTKL in the therapy of TBI in clinic practice in the future.
