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

Nitric oxide (NO) donors prevent experimentally-induced gastric mucosal damage, but their clinical utility is limited by short duration of action or unsuitability of the pharmaceutical form employed. This study analyses the gastroprotection elicited by a clinically used mode of continuous administration of an NO donor, namely the nitroglycerin patch. Application to rats of a transdermal patch that releases doses of nitroglycerin comparable to those used in man (40, 80, 160 and 400 ng min(-1) rat(-1)) reduced gastric damage induced by indomethacin (25 mg kg(-1), p.o. or s.c.). The nitroglycerin patch (160 ng min(-1) rat(-1)) also diminished damage by oral administration (1 ml) of acidified bile salts (100 mg kg(-1) taurocholic acid in 150 mM HCl) or 50% ethanol. Transdermal nitroglycerin (160 ng min(-1) rat(-1)) did not influence basal gastric blood flow, as measured by lasser-doppler flowmetry, but prevented its reduction by indomethacin. Transdermal nitroglycerin (160 ng min(-1) rat(-1)) prevented in vivo leukocyte rolling and adherence in the rat mesentery microvessels superfused with indomethacin, as evaluated by intravital microscopy. The transdermal nitroglycerin patch protects the gastric mucosa from damage by mechanisms that involve maintenance of mucosal blood flow and reduction of leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction.
