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

backgroundIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) comprises primary and secondary injuries, the latter of which induces increased inflammation and apoptosis and is more severe. Activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) is a type-II transmembrane protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). ATF6 target genes could improve ER homeostasis, which contributes to cryoprotection. Hence, we predict that ATF6 will have a protective effect on brain tissue after ICH.

methodThe ICH rat model was generated through autologous blood injection into the right basal ganglia, the expression of ATF6 after ICH was determined by WB and IF. The expression of ATF6 was effectively controlled by means of intervention, and a series of measures was used to detect cell death, neuroinflammation, brain edema, blood-brain barrier and other indicators after ICH. Finally, the effects on long-term neural function of rats were measured by behavioral means.

resultATF6 was significantly increased in the ICH-induced brain tissues. Further, ATF6 was found to modulate the expression of cystathionine γ-lyase (CTH) after ICH. Upregulation of ATF6 attenuated neuronal apoptosis and inflammation in ICH rats, along with mitigation of ICH-induced brain edema, blood-brain barrier deterioration, and cognitive behavior defects. Conversely, ATF6 genetic knockdown induced effects counter to those aforementioned.

conclusionsThis study thereby emphasizes the crucial role of ATF6 in secondary brain injury in response to ICH, indicating that ATF6 upregulation may potentially ameliorate ICH-induced secondary brain injury. Consequently, ATF6 could serve as a promising therapeutic target to alleviate clinical ICH-induced secondary brain injuries.
