Expression of BDNF in the Cortex and Hippocampus of Mice With Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimStroke is a cerebrovascular disease with high mortality and disability, causing motor dysfunction and cognitive impairments. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mouse models of ischemic stroke are used for identifying therapeutic targets. Ischemic insults to the brain alter brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression in cortical and hippocampal neurons. In the present study, we investigated BDNF expression in the cortex and hippocampus of mice following MCAO. MATERIALS AND
methodsMonofilament sutures coated with silicone rubber were introduced into the common carotid artery and occluded middle cerebral artery. The filament was withdrawn for reperfusion after 0.5 h. BDNF protein expression was measured using western blot. Immunofluorescence was performed with anti-NeuN and anti-BDNF antibodies.
resultsBDNF expression in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus was decreased one and three days after MCAO, compared to the control group (unoperated mice). BDNF was expressed in NeuN-positive neurons in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and motor cortex of the MCAO and control groups.
conclusionMCAO in mice reduced the expression of BDNF in mature neurons of both the motor cortex and hippocampus at one and three days after surgery.
