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

Neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction and loss, pose significant health challenges. Glutamate accumulation contributes to neuronal cell death in diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. This study investigates the neuroprotective potential of Albizia lebbeck leaf extract and its major constituent, luteolin, against glutamate-induced hippocampal neuronal cell death. Glutamate-treated HT-22 cells exhibited reduced viability, altered morphology, increased ROS, and apoptosis, which were attenuated by pre-treatment with A. lebbeck extract and luteolin. Luteolin also restored mitochondrial function, decreased mitochondrial superoxide, and preserved mitochondrial morphology. Notably, we first found that luteolin inhibited the excessive process of mitophagy via the inactivation of BNIP3L/NIX and inhibited lysosomal activity. Our study suggests that glutamate-induced autophagy-mediated cell death is attenuated by luteolin via activation of mTORC1. These findings highlight the potential of A. lebbeck as a neuroprotective agent, with luteolin inhibiting glutamate-induced neurotoxicity by regulating autophagy and mitochondrial dynamics.
