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

Hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) arises from diminished blood flow and oxygen to the neonatal brain during labor, leading to infant mortality or severe brain damage, with a global incidence of 1.5 per 1000 live births. Glucagon-like Peptide 1 Receptor (GLP1-R) agonists, used in type 2 diabetes treatment, exhibit neuroprotective effects in various brain injury models, including HIE. In this study, we observed enhanced neurological outcomes in post-natal day 10 mice with surgically induced hypoxic-ischaemic (HI) brain injury after immediate systemic administration of exendin-4 or semaglutide. Short- and long-term assessments revealed improved neuropathology, survival rates, and locomotor function. We explored the mechanisms by which GLP1-R agonists trigger neuroprotection and reduce inflammation following oxygen-glucose deprivation and HI in neonatal mice, highlighting the upregulation of the PI3/AKT signalling pathway and increased cAMP levels. These findings shed light on the neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of GLP1-R agonists in HIE, potentially extending to other neurological conditions, supporting their potential clinical use in treating infants with HIE.
