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

The incidence of ischemic stroke, involving neuronal cell death and damaged blood vessels, is gradually increasing. In this study, we investigated the effects of a miR-495-3p-I on neuronal viability and recovery using both oxygen-glucose deprivation and recovery (OGD/R) and in transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAo) models of ischemic stroke. Cell viability increased with miR-495-3p-I treatment compared with the OGD/R group, and both early and late apoptosis decreased through by flow cytometry analysis. In the tMCAo model, tissues injected with miR-495-3p-I showed upregulation of canonical Wnt pathway genes (cyclin D1 and c-Myc) and neuronal marker (Tuj1), while non-canonical Wnt/MAPK pathway genes (caspase-3 and -7) were downregulated. Expression of the pro-apoptotic marker Bax was reduced, whereas the Bcl-2 family protein Mcl-1 increased. Behavioral tests revealed improved motor function compared to the sham group and treatment with miR-495-3p-I reduced brain infarct volume. This research explored the function of miR-495-3p-I in Wnt and MAPK pathways by using the miR-495-3p-I in a model of ischemic stroke, a neurological disease. Thus, we demonstrated that miR-495-3p-I reduced apoptosis and enhanced neuronal cell survival, suggesting it could be a potential therapeutic target.
