Behavioral and histological study on the neuroprotective effect of thymoquinone on the cerebellum in AlCl3-induced neurotoxicity in rats through modulation of oxidative stress, apoptosis, and autophagy.

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
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition. Thymoquinone (TQ) is a natural compound that possesses beneficial biological effects on the brain. The present study evaluates the protective impact of TQ on the cerebellum in rats with AlCl3-induced Alzheimer's disease. Four groups were utilized. Control: 20 rats that were subdivided into two subgroups. Ia: received distilled water for 4 weeks. Ib: received corn oil via oral gavage (1 ml/kg daily) for 4 weeks. TQ group: 10 rats received TQ in corn oil via oral gavage (20 mg/kg daily) for 4 weeks. AD group:10 rats received AlCl3 in distilled water via oral gavage (300 mg/kg daily) for 4 weeks. AD & TQ group: 10 rats received both AlCl3 & TQ for 4 weeks. The grip period in the rotarod test decreased, escape latency in first three days and the entry latency period to the quadrant with the removed escape platform in the Morris water maze test increased in AD group, but when TQ was administered concurrently, there was a noteworthy improvement. Meanwhile, when compared to AD group, the addition of TQ showed a significant decrease (P < 0.05) in levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO), associated with a significant increase (P < 0.05) in reduced glutathione (GSH) level. Furthermore, AD & TQ group exhibited substantial preservation of the cerebellum's histological structure, the Purkinje cells number and transverse diameter showed a high significant increase (P < 0.001) and a significant increase (P < 0.05), respectively in comparison to the AD group. Using TQ showed improvement in behavioral tests, biochemical and histological findings. Thus, TQ might have therapeutic effects on Alzheimer's disease.
