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
purposeTo investigate the protective effect of trans-anethole in experimental traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice.
methodsThirty-five adult mice were divided into five groups (control, TBI, TBI+A40, TBI+A80, and TBI+A160). No treatment was performed in the control group. The treated groups (TBI+A40, TBI+A80, and TBI+A160) received 40, 80 or 160 mg/kg trans-anethole treatment, respectively. At the end of the experiment, the brains of the sacrificed animals were removed, and laboratory analyses were performed.
resultsMalondialdehyde (MDA) levels in brain tissue of TBI and TBI+A40 were significantly increased, while MDA levels of TBI+A80 and TBI were similar. TBI+A160 and control tissue MDA levels were similar (p > 0.05), significantly different from TBI (p < 0.01). Immunodensity analyses showed that there was a significant difference between the control and TBI in terms of Bax, caspase 3, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin- (IL)-1β immunoexpression. TBI+A40 immunoexpression was similar to TBI (p > 0.05), significantly different from the control groups (p < 0.05). In TBI+A80 and TBI+A160, pro-apoptotic Bax and caspase 3, pro-inflammatory TNF-α and IL-1β levels were also significantly improved. Immunoexpression levels of TBI+A160 and control were similar (p > 0.05).
conclusionin our study, trans-anethole treatment had a dose-dependent neuroprotective potential against trauma-induced neurodegeneration.
