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 aim of this study was to evaluate whether xanthine and adenosine, substances modified proportionally to the duration of ischemia, can determine cell demise (apoptosis/necrosis) during intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and to determine the role of nitric oxide (NO) during this process. The following experimental groups were studied: I, cold ischemia; I+X, effect of xanthine; I+T, effect of adenosine (blocking its receptor by theophylline); I+A, effect of excess adenosine; I+T+X, effect of xanthine alone, and I+T+ spermine NONOate (NONOs), I+A+NONOs, I+X+NONOs, role of NO. DNA fragmentation, xanthine/adenosine levels, caspase-3 activity, NO generation, and histological analysis were measured in tissue samples. The rats treated with xanthine or adenosine showed increased levels of caspase-3 activity and DNA fragmentation. In contrast, theophylline-treated rats showed decreased levels of DNA fragmentation and tended to show lower mean values of caspase-3 activity. Administration of xanthine or NONOs to theophylline-treated rats reversed these effects. The results of histological evaluation were in agreement with these previous results. In conclusion, the present study indicates that xanthine and adenosine induced an apoptotic response during cold ischemic preservation of rat small intestine. In particular, the action of adenosine on apoptotic events was mediated by NO. We consider that identification of the role of these factors may help to define the best conditions of tissue preservation before intestinal transplantation.
