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

1. Sepsis induced by S. aureus was used to investigate whether neutrophil migration failure to infectious focus correlates with lethality in Gram-positive bacteria-induced sepsis in mice. 2. By contrast with the sub-lethal (SL-group), the lethal (L-group) intraperitoneal inoculum of S. aureus caused failure of neutrophil migration (92% reduction), high CFU in the exudate, bacteremia and impairment of in vitro neutrophil chemotactic activity. 3. Pre-treatments of L-group with adequate doses of aminoguanidine prevented the neutrophil migration failure and improved the survival of the animals (pre-treated: 43%; untreated: 0% survival). Thus, the impairment of neutrophil migration in the L-group appears to be mediated by nitric oxide (NO). 4. The injection of S. aureus SL-inoculum in iNOS deficient (-/-) or aminoguanidine-treated wild-type mice (pre- and post-treatment), which did not present neutrophil migration failure, paradoxically caused severe peritonitis and high mortality. This fact is explainable by the lack of NO dependent microbicidal activity in migrated neutrophils. 5. In conclusion, although the NO microbicidal mechanism is active in neutrophils, the failure of their migration to the infectious focus may be responsible for the severity and outcome of sepsis.
