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

Mechanisms underlying cerebrovascular stroke outcomes are poorly understood, and the effects of biological sex on cerebrovascular regulation post-stroke have yet to be fully comprehended. Here, we explore the overlapping roles of gonadal sex hormones and rho-kinase (ROCK), two important modulators of cerebrovascular tone, on the acute cerebrovascular response to photothrombotic (PT) focal ischemia in mice. Male mice were gonadectomized and female mice were ovariectomized to remove gonadal hormones, whereas control ("intact") animals received a sham surgery prior to stroke induction. Intact wild-type (WT) males showed a delayed drop in cerebral blood flow (CBF) compared with intact WT females, whereby maximal CBF drop was observed 48 h following stroke. Gonadectomy in males did not alter this response. However, ovariectomy in WT females produced a "male-like" phenotype. Intact
