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

Cigarette smoke (CS) is a major environmental toxicant associated with cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative disease, yet the earliest hippocampal responses to short-term exposure remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of short-term CS exposure on hippocampal neuropeptide signalling, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, mitochondrial homeostasis, neuroplasticity and astroglial activation. Mice were exposed to the equivalent of 0, 2, 4 or 6 cigarettes per exposure session, twice daily for four consecutive days, using a whole-body exposure paradigm. Hippocampal tissue was analysed by reverse transcription quantitative PCR, ELISA, immunofluorescence and histology. Short-term CS exposure disrupted hippocampal PACAP/VIP signalling, characterised by reduced
