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

backgroundMicrocirculation is the essential link between macrocirculation and cellular metabolism.

objectivesTo test our hypotheses that microcirculation variables will show a heterogeneous flow pattern during experimental endotoxaemia, and that fluid therapy and noradrenaline (NA) infusion will normalise altered microcirculation variables. STUDY

designIn vivo experiments.

methodsSix healthy adult horses were anaesthetised with dexmedetomidine, ketamine, and diazepam and were mechanically ventilated under isoflurane anaesthesia. Endotoxaemia was induced with 30 ng kg

resultsThe PPV decreased significantly over time by 30% (p < 0.001) at the jejunum. MFI decreased from baseline to ET60 and from baseline to ET120 in sublingual and genital mucosa (2.9 vs. 1.4, p < 0.001 and 2.8 vs. 1.9, p < 0.01), respectively. The sublingual HI increased from baseline to ET60, ET120 and NA (0.1 vs. 0.9, p = 0.02; vs. 0.6, p = 0.01; vs. 0.3, p = 0.01), respectively. The genital HI increased from baseline to ET120 (0.2 vs. 1.1, p ≤ 0.01) and NA (0.16 vs. 0.53, p < 0.05, respectively). Moderate agreement between observers for MFI assessment was present (kappa = 0.4). The PR significantly increased, and MAP significantly decreased from baseline over time. MAIN LIMITATIONS: The obtained data could be influenced by secretions, pressure artefacts, the experience of the examiner and the sampling location. Blood flow was not quantified and there was no control group.

conclusionsOverall, short-term experimental endotoxaemia did negatively alter MFI and HI; however, it did not alter tSO
