The Effects of IRL-1620 in Post-ischemic Brain Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Experimental Studies.

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.
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
backgroundSovateltide (IRL-1620), an endothelin B receptor agonist, has previously demonstrated neuroprotective and neuroregenerative effects in animal models of acute ischemic stroke. Recently, clinical trials indicated that it could also be effective in humans with stroke. Here, we systematically investigate whether IRL-1620 may be used for the treatment of ischemia-induced brain injury.
methodsA systematic review was performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. MEDLINE (PubMed) and Scopus databases were searched for eligible studies up to December 2022. The databases ClinicalTrials.gov and Pharmazz Inc. were screened for unpublished or ongoing trials. Only studies in English were evaluated for eligibility. Meta-analysis of the included studies was also conducted.
resultsFinally, seven studies were included in the review, all in animal rat models because of scarcity of clinical trials. Six studies, all in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) models, were selected for meta-analysis. In the two studies assessing mortality, no deaths were reported in the IRL-1620 group 24 h after MCAO, whereas the vehicle group had almost a five times higher mortality risk (risk ratio 5.3, 95% confidence interval 0.7-40.1, I
conclusionsAccording to the above, in animal MCAO models, IRL-1620 enhanced neurogenesis and neuroprotection and improved outcome. Future studies are needed to expand our understanding of its effects in human study participants with acute ischemic stroke as well as in other common causes of cerebral ischemia including cardiac arrest.
