Decrease of Cellular Communication Network Factor 1 (CCN1) Attenuates PTZ-Kindled Epilepsy in Mice.
Article in Cellular and molecular neurobiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
To investigate the molecular mechanism of communication network factor 1 (CCN1) regulating pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced epileptogenesis, deepen the understanding of epilepsy seizure pathogenesis, and provide new drug action targets for its clinical prevention and treatment. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) on microarrays GSE47516 and GSE88992 were analyzed online using GEO2R. Pathway enrichment and protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis of DEGs were carried out using Metascape. Brain tissue samples of severe traumatic brain injury patients (named Healthy group) and refractory epilepsy patients (named Epilepsy group) were obtained and analyzed by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. A PTZ-induced epilepsy mouse model was established and verified. Morphological changes of neurons in mouse brain tissue were detected using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. qRT-PCR was conducted to detect the mRNA expressions of apoptosis-associated proteins Bax, Caspase-3 and bcl2. TUNEL staining was performed to detect brain neuron apoptosis. The levels of myocardial enzymology, GSH, MDA and ROS in blood of mouse were detected by biochemical assay. CCN1 expression was increased in epilepsy brain tissue samples. CCN1 decreasing effectively prolongs seizure incubation period and decreases seizure duration. Silencing of CCN1 also reduces neuronal damage and apoptosis, decreases mRNA and protein expression of proapoptotic proteins Bax and Caspase-3, increases mRNA expression of antiapoptotic protein Bcl2. Moreover, decrease of CCN1 decreases myocardial enzymatic indexes CK and CK-MB levels, reduces myocardial tissue hemorrhage, and relieves oxidative stress response in hippocampal and myocardial tissue. CCN1 expression is increased in epileptic samples. CCN1 decreasing protects brain tissue by attenuating oxidative stress and inhibiting neuronal apoptosis triggered by PTZ injection, which probably by regulating Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.
