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

Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Therefore, there is a critical need to explore the underlying mechanisms and develop effective treatment strategies for ischemic stroke. As small and non-immunogenic nucleic acid molecules, aptamers can be easily chemically modified, break through the blood-brain barrier, and be screened using the classic Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment. With the advancements in emerging technologies, aptamer-based strategies have provided diagnostic and therapeutic potential for applications in central nervous system diseases. Aptamers have become a useful tool for targeted therapy and biomarker discovery in ischemic stroke. This review presents recent advances and perspectives on aptamer applications in stroke prevention, treatment, and diagnosis, focusing on targeting pathological blood clotting or thrombosis, inflammatory responses, and specific biomarkers in key cells.
