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

Background: During cerebral ischemia, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is released into the extracellular matrix from damaged neurons and glial cells, functioning as a danger signal. However, the involvement of ATP/P2X7 signaling in regulating the infiltrated lymphocytes during ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury remain unclear. Methods: The expression level of P2X7 was evaluated in infiltrated lymphocytes from experimental stroke mice. To further elucidate the role of P2X7 signaling in infiltrated immune cells during ischemic stroke, P2X7-knockout (KO) mice and Rag2 Results: Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the expression of P2X7 was mainly expressed in CD4 Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the loss of ATP/P2X7 signaling in CD4
