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

The purpose of this study was to examine whether tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), a cofactor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, attenuates gastric ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by clamping of the celiac artery. Gastric injury was assessed by a formation of gastric mucosal erosions. The gastric injury was observed at 30 and 60 min after reperfusion following 30-min ischemia and was reduced by superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, or NO synthase inhibitors. Therefore, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and NO seem to be implicated in the ischemia-reperfusion injury. Treatment with BH4 reduced the ischemia-reperfusion injury. Pretreatment with sepiapterin, a precursor of BH4, also reduced the ischemia-reperfusion injury with an increase in BH4 content in serum and stomach. Both the increase in BH4 content and the protective effect of sepiapterin were prevented of pretreatment with N-acetylserotonin, an inhibitor of BH4 synthesis. These results suggest that the increase in BH4 content may protect against gastric ischemia-reperfusion injury via reduction of ROS and/or NO toxicity. BH4 might be useful as a therapeutic agent for gastric ischemia-reperfusion injury.
