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: After primary tissue damage as a result of spinal cord injury (SCI), there is a period of secondary damage, which includes several cellular and inflammatory biochemical cascades. As a novel pro-apoptotic kinase, Materials and Methods: The rats were divided into control (contusion), laminectomy, sham-operated (contused rats received 1 ml normal saline intraperitoneal), and treatment (contused rats received 5 mg/kg of L-deprenyl intraperitoneal; once a day for 7 days). The BBB (Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan) scales were performed to assess motor function following SCI. Rats were sacrificed 28 days after SCI and the spinal cord lesion area was removed. Apoptosis and cavity formation in the spinal cord were determined by H&E staining and TUNEL assay, respectively. The mRNA levels of the Results: The results showed significant improvement in motor function in the L- deprenyl group compared with the untreated group. Histological analysis showed a significant reduction in the number of tunnel-positive cells after injection of L-deprenyl, as well as a decrease in the volume of the cavity. In addition, L-deprenyl treatment increased the expression of the Conclusion: These results suggest that L-deprenyl is a promising treatment for spinal cord injury.
