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

Introduction: The loss of vasculature in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) contributes to secondary injury, expanding the injury to unharmed spinal cord (SC) regions. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing therapeutic interventions. Research question: Comprehensive analysis of the temporospatial dynamics of vascular injury and regeneration following SCI. Materials and methods: Adult C57BL/6J mice were subjected to clip-compression SCI (Th 6/7, 5g, 60s, n = 20) or sham injury (laminectomy, n = 4), and sacrificed at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days (d) post-injury following intracardial fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-Lectin perfusion. Histological analysis (CD31, FITC-Lectin, Ki-67, IgG, TER-119) assessed vascular changes, permeability, and proliferation within the injury epicenter (region 0 (R0), ± 0,5 mm) and two adjacent SC regions (R1: ± 1 mm, R2: ± 2.5 mm). Results: Perfusion loss (FITC-Lectin+/CD31+), was most severe in R0 and R1 at d3 (p < 0.01). Significant vascular loss in R2 started at d3 (p = 0.043). Perfusion was restored at d28 in R0 and R1, and at d7 in R2. Vessel density (CD31 Discussion and conclusion: Vascular injury is most severe initially and spreads to the surrounding SC regions. Gradual vascular regeneration occurs early and up to a considerable distance from the injury epicenter, highlighting the potential of early therapeutic interventions targeted at vascular repair and regeneration.
