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

aimsMany factors affect the neuroinflammatory response in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD). Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is closely related to microglial activation in the nervous system and can promote the aggregation of cancer cells in tumors. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which farnesylthiosalicylic acid (FTS) affects neuroinflammation in Aβ

methodsWe used the Morris water maze, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunofluorescence to conduct our study.

resultsFTS reduced the levels of proinflammatory factors and microglial activation in Aβ

conclusionFTS may through inhibiting Gal-3 reduce the expression of TLR4 and CD14 and alleviate Aβ pathology, downregulating Aβ-stimulated TLR2, TLR4, and CD14 expression, and thus alleviate neuroinflammation in Aβ
