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

Cigarette smoking and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been associated with gastroduodenal ulcers. The present study aimed to clarify the ulcerogenic mechanisms of passive cigarette smoking on gastrointestinal damage induced by indomethacin in fasted or in fasted and refed rats. Rats were exposed to cigarette smoke (0%, 1%, 2%, or 4%, v/v) before and/or after indomethacin administration. Cigarette smoke dose-dependently potentiated indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal lesions in the fasted animals and further lowered gastric blood flow. The gastric myeloperoxidase activity (a marker enzyme for neutrophils) was also potentiated. In addition, passive cigarette smoking increased the mortality and aggravated duodenal ulceration and also the reduction of duodenal blood flow in the fasted and refed rats after indomethacin treatment. The results indicated that the potentiating effect of passive cigarette smoking on indomethacin-induced gastroduodenal lesions is probably due to the depression of blood flow in the gastroduodenal mucosa and to the aggravation of neutrophil infiltration in the gastric mucosa.
