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

Objectives: Sappanone A (SA) is a compound derived from Materials and Methods: We used SA to treat pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced mice as well as HT22 hippocampal cells exposed to Mg²⁺-free solution. Seizure behavior in the mice was recorded. Nissl staining, TUNEL assay, and flow cytometry were used to evaluate neuronal damage and apoptosis. Moreover, we employed biochemical tests to assess inflammation and oxidative stress levels, and conducted quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot to detect CHOP expression. Results: Pretreatments with SA (25 and 50 mg/kg) significantly prolonged seizure latency and reduced seizure duration in PTZ-induced epileptic mice (all Conclusion: Our findings suggest that SA pretreatment exerts neuroprotective effects against epilepsy, potentially through suppression of CHOP expression. However, the causal relationship between CHOP suppression and SA-mediated neuroprotection in epilepsy warrants further investigation.
