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) is a disease characterized by disruption of blood flow to the brain, resulting in damage to brain tissue and neurological deficits. The high incidence of IS and the complexity of the underlying pathophysiology of IS have led to the need for further therapeutic development. It has been found that pericytes are indispensable multifunctional cells, which can coordinate multiple biological processes, and play a vital role in the development of IS. The purpose of this review is to provide a detailed overview of the role of pericytes in regulating vascular blood flow, maintaining BBB, regulating immune response, and promoting intracerebral fibrosis during the pathophysiological process after IS, which have dual effects on intracerebral recovery after IS. Finally, the article summarizes the current strategies targeting pericytes for the treatment of IS.
