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

Status epilepticus (SE) refers to a single seizure that lasts longer than typical seizures or a series of consecutive seizures. The hippocampus, which is vulnerable to the effects of SE, has a critical role in memory storage and retrieval. The trisynaptic loop in the hippocampus connects the substructures thereof, namely the dentate gyrus (DG), CA3, and CA1. In an animal model of SE, abnormal neurogenesis in the DG and aberrant neural network formation result in sequential neural degeneration in CA3 and CA1. Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy, previously known as low-level laser (light) therapy (LLLT), is a novel therapy for the treatment of various neurological disorders including SE. However, the effects of this novel therapeutic approach on the recovery process are poorly understood. In the present study, we found that PBM transformed SE-induced abnormal neurogenesis to normal neurogenesis. We demonstrated that PBM plays a key role in normal hippocampal neurogenesis by enhancing the migration of maturing granular cells (early neuronal cells) to the GCL, and that normal neurogenesis induced by PBM prevents SE-induced hippocampal neuronal loss in CA1. Thus, PBM is a novel approach to prevent seizure-induced neuronal degeneration, for which light devices may be developed in the future.
