Electroacupuncture Inhibits Neuroinflammation Induced by Astrocytic Necroptosis Through RIP1/MLKL/TLR4 Pathway in a Mouse Model of Spinal Cord Injury.
Article in Molecular neurobiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Astrocytic necroptosis plays an essential role in the progression and regression of neurological disorders, which contributes to the neuroinflammation and disrupts neuronal regeneration and remyelination of severed axons. Electroacupuncture (EA), an effective therapeutic efficacy against spinal cord injury (SCI), has been proved to reduce neuronal cell apoptosis, inhibit inflammation, and prompt neural stem cell proliferation and differentiations. However, there have been few reports on whether EA regulate astrocytic necroptosis in SCI model. To investigate the effects of EA on astrocytic necroptosis and the mechanisms involved in the inhibition of astrocytic necroptosis after SCI in mice by EA, 8-week-old female C57BL/6 mice were subjected to SCI surgery and randomly divided into EA and SCI groups. Mice receiving sham surgery were included as sham group. "Jiaji" was selected as points for EA treatment, 10 min/day for 14 days. The in vitro data revealed that EA treatment significantly improved the nervous function and pathological changes after SCI. EA also reduced the number of GFAP/P-MLKL, GFAP/MLKL, GFAP/HMGB1, and Iba1/HMGB1 co-positive cells and inhibited the expressions of IL-6, IL-1β, and IL-33. The results indicate a significant reduction in inflammatory reaction and astrocytic necroptosis in mice with SCI by EA. Additionally, the expressions of RIP1, MLKL, and TLR4, which are associated with necroptosis, were found to be downregulated by EA. In this study, we confirmed that EA can inhibit neuroinflammation by reducing astrocytic necroptosis through downregulation of RIP1/MLKL/TLR4 pathway in mice with SCI.
