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

aimTo elucidate the role of NF-kB activation in the development of multiple organ dysfunction (MOD) during acute obstructive cholangitis (AOC) in rats.

methodsForty-two Wistar rats were divided into three groups: the AOC group, the group of bile duct ligation (BDL group), and the sham operation group (SO group). All the animals in the three groups were killed in the 6th and 48th hour after operation. Morphological changes of vital organs were observed under light and electron microscopy. NF-kB activation was determined with Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay (EMSA). Arterial blood gas analyses and the serum levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine were performed. The concentrations of TNF-alpha and IL-6 in plasma were also measured.

resultsThe significant changes of histology and ultrastructure of vital organs were observed in AOC group. By contrast, in BDL group, all the features of organs damage were greatly reduced. Expression of NF-kB activation in various tissues increased in AOC group when compared to other two groups. At 6 h, the arterial pH in three groups was 7.52+/-0.01, 7.46+/-0.02, and 7.45+/-0.02, and the blood pCO(2) was 33.9+/-0.95 mmHg, 38.1+/-0.89 mmHg, 38.9+/-0.94 mmHg, there was difference in three groups (P<0.05). At 48 h, the blood pH values in three groups was 7.33+/-0.07, 7.67+/-0.04, and 7.46+/-0.03, and blood HCO(3)(-) was 20.1+/-1.29 mmol x L(-1), 26.7+/-1.45 mmol x L(-1) and 27.4+/-0.35 mmol x L(-1), there was also difference in three groups (P<0.05). In AOC group, Levels of LDH, ALT, BUN and creatinine were 1,6359.9+/-2,278.8 nkat x L(-1), 5,796.2+/-941.9 nkat.L(-1), 55.7+/-15.3 mg/dl, and 0.72+/-0.06 mg/dl, which were higher than in SO group (3,739.1+/- 570.1 nkat x L(-1), 288.4+/-71.7 nkat x L(-1), 12.5+/-2.14 mg/dl, and 0.47+/-0.03 mg/dl) (P<0.05). Levels of plasma TNF-alpha and IL-6 in AOC at 48 h were 429+/-56.62 ng x L(-1) and 562+/-57 ng x L(-1), which increased greatly when compared to BDL group (139+/-16 ng x L(-1), 227+/-43 ng x L(-1)) and SO group (74+/-10 ng x L(-1), 113+/-19 ng x L(-1)) (P<0.05).

conclusionThe pathological damages and the NF-kB activation of many vital organs excised during AOC. These findings have an important implication for the role of NF-kB activation in MOD during AOC.
