[Electroacupuncture improves learning and memory function and promotes hippocampal synaptic regeneration in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury].
Article in Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectivesTo explore the neuroprotective mechanism of electroacupuncture at the acupoints
methodsForty-eight male SD rats were equally randomized into sham operation group, cerebral IR model group, acupoint electroacupuncture group and non-acupoint acupuncture group. In the latter 3 groups, cerebral focal ischemic injury was induced using the Longa method; in the two electroacupuncture groups, electroacupuncture was performed either at the acupoints
resultsCompared with those in cerebral IR model group, the rats receiving electroacupuncture at the acupoints, but not those with electroacupuncture at the non-acupoints, showed significantly decreased neurological deficit scores and cerebral infarction volume with shortened escape latency and increased platform crossings. Electroacupuncture at the acupoints significantly increased neuronal cell number, decreased the width of the synaptic gaps and increased density of synaptic bodies in the ischemic hippocampal CA1 area, resulting also in increased serum GABA levels and hippocampal expressions of GABA
