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

Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury triggers a cascade of neuroinflammatory responses and multiple forms of regulated cell death. PANoptosis, integrating pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, has been implicated in inflammatory disorders, but its role in cerebral I/R remains unclear. This study explored the molecular profile and immune relevance of PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) in rat I/R injury. A rat I/R model was established by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Transcriptome sequencing identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using DESeq2, and PANoptosis-related DEGs (PR-DEGs) were obtained by intersecting with GeneCards-derived PRGs. Functional enrichment (GO, KEGG, Metascape, GSEA), weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and immune infiltration analyses were performed to uncover biological functions and immune features associated with PR-DEGs. Rats subjected to I/R injury showed significant infarction, neurological deficits, and increased TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-10 expression, along with downregulated Bcl-2 and upregulated CD16 and iNOS, indicating strong inflammatory responses. A total of 51 PR-DEGs were identified, primarily enriched in inflammatory and immune signaling pathways such as TNF, NF-κB, and MAPK. WGCNA revealed the salmon module as most correlated with I/R injury, and hub genes including CASP8, STAT3 were identified. Correlation and immune infiltration analyses demonstrated strong associations between key PR-DEGs and pro-inflammatory immune cells, suggesting a close relationship between PANoptosis-associated gene expression patterns and immune dysregulation in I/R injury. Our findings suggest coordinated activation of PANoptosis-related signaling in cerebral I/R injury. CASP8 and STAT3 were identified as key PR-DEGs associated with I/R, providing a foundation for further mechanistic investigation.
