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

The role of junctional protein associated with coronary artery disease (JCAD) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has not been investigated yet. To investigate its potential as a therapeutic target, transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced in JCAD knockout mice, with improvement of stroke outcome and reduced blood-brain barrier permeability and expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1. JCAD plays a deleterious role in ischemia/reperfusion cerebral damage and associates with higher 90-day mortality in patients with AIS. JCAD may thus represent a novel prognostic biomarker for patients with AIS, as well as a therapeutic target.
