Drebrin Upregulation Regulates Astrocyte Polarization and Supports Tissue Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury in Mice.
Article in Glia, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in significant disruption of nerve fibers responsible for transmitting signals between the brain and body, often leading to partial or complete motor, sensory, and autonomic dysfunction below the injury site. Astrocytes are an important component in scar formation, crucial for suppression of injury propagation, effective wound healing, and the regulation of neuronal plasticity. Here, we identify the role of the actin-binding protein Drebrin (DBN) in reactive astrogliosis following SCI. SCI induces the upregulation of DBN in astrocytes, which controls immediate injury containment but also the long-term preservation of tissue integrity and healing in the spinal cord. DBN knockout results in enlarged spinal cord lesions, increased immune cell infiltration, and neurodegeneration. Mechanistically, DBN loss disrupts the polarization of scar border-forming astrocytes, leading to impaired encapsulation of the injury. In summary, DBN serves as a pivotal regulator of SCI outcome by modulating astrocytic polarity, which is essential for establishing a protective barrier confining the lesion site.
