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

Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) channel, a monovalent cation channel, plays a crucial role in various neurological disorders. We previously showed that TRPM4 activity can be blocked by our antibodies: M4P, which targets rat TRPM4 and M4M, against a similar antigenic epitope of human TRPM4. M4P and M4M demonstrated efficacy in mitigating stroke reperfusion injury. To facilitate human application, M4M was humanized through CDR grafting, resulting in human IgG1 antibodies (Ab1-6). These antibodies were evaluated for their binding affinity, surface staining, stability, and functional inhibition of the human TRPM4 channel. Ab6 (renamed as M4H) was selected and inhibited TRPM4 currents in human brain microvascular endothelial cells under ATP depletion conditions. Importantly, Ab6 (M4H) suppressed ATP depletion-induced cell swelling, indicating its potential for managing vascular injury in ischemic brain diseases. Future studies on animal models could advance the development of novel therapies of neurological disorders with vascular injury.
