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

Following ischemic stroke, marked alterations in the local metabolic and inflammatory milieu of the brain drive immunometabolic remodeling and mitochondrial dysfunction in microglia, thereby shaping inflammation, damage clearance, and tissue repair. Existing studies have largely focused on individual metabolic pathways, leaving the relationships among the ischemic microenvironment, mitochondrial responses, and microglial functional changes incompletely understood. Available evidence indicates that the effects of these metabolic alterations vary with stroke phase, local injury severity, and mitochondrial status. This review summarizes current evidence on glycolysis and lactate transport, the tricarboxylic acid cycle and succinate signaling, lipid handling, and danger-signal sensing, with particular emphasis on their relationships with mitochondrial redox homeostasis and quality control. We also critically evaluate divergent findings across studies. By examining the interaction between the ischemic microenvironment and mitochondrial responses, this review aims to clarify the metabolic basis of microglial functional changes and to inform the assessment of potential therapeutic targets in microglial immunometabolism.
