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

backgroundPost-stroke depression (PSD) is a prevalent neuropsychiatric complication of stroke. However, the mechanisms underlying PSD are still unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of HCN1 (hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel 1) in the pathogenesis of PSD and its underlying mechanisms.

methodsThe PSD mice model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion in vivo. Four weeks after middle cerebral artery occlusion, anxiety- and depression-like behaviors of mice were evaluated by various behavioral tests. HCN channels were downregulated by pharmacological inhibitor or neuron-specific adeno-associated virus. The oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation model in SY5Y cells was used to study the pathogenesis of PSD in vitro.

resultsMice exhibited anxiety- and depression-like behavior 4 weeks after middle cerebral artery occlusion, along with a significant increase in HCN1 protein expression in the ischemic hippocampus. Furthermore, the I

conclusionsDownregulation of HCN1 channels has a beneficial effect on PSD by suppressing the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, thus offering promise as a strategy for preventing and treating PSD.
