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

backgroundIntestinal ischemic reperfusion (I/R) injury is associated with a high mortality rate; this condition is also related to significant endotoxemia and systemic inflammation. The preservation of tissue perfusion and a sufficient blood flow are required to deliver nutrients and oxygen, preserve metabolic pathways, and eliminate waste products. Oxidative stress plays a fundamental role in intestinal I/R injury and leads to disruption of the mucosal barrier and necrosis, allowing the migration of endotoxins and luminal bacteria into the systemic circulation. In this study, we evaluated the beneficial effects of a cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor-firocoxib-plus the antioxidant vitamin C in a rat model of intestinal I/R injury.

methodsWe used a rat model of I/R injury in which the superior mesenteric artery was clamped for 30 min by a vascular clamp, and the animals were then allowed 1 h of reperfusion.

resultsOur results show the importance of combined anti-inflammatory and antioxidant treatment for the prevention of intestinal I/R injury that leads to reduced systemic endotoxemia. We observed a significantly synergistic effect of firocoxib and vitamin C in reducing intestinal wall damage and oxidative stress, leading to a significant reduction of inflammation and endotoxemia.

conclusionsOur results indicate that this approach could be a new pharmacological protocol for intestinal colic or ischemic injury-induced endotoxemia.
