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

In microvessels, acute inflammation is typified by an increase in leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions, culminating in leukocyte transmigration into the tissue, and increased permeability to water and solutes, resulting in tissue edema. The goal of this study was to establish a method to quantify solute permeability (P(s)) changes in microvessels in intact predominantly blood-perfused networks in which leukocyte transmigratory behavior could be precisely described using established paradigms. We used intravital confocal microscopy to measure solute (BSA) flux across microvessel walls, hence P(s). A quantitative fluorescence approach (Huxley VH, Curry FE, and Adamson RH. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 252: H188-H197, 1987) was adapted to the imaged confocal tissue slice in which the fluorescent source volume and source surface area of the microvessel were restricted to the region of vessel that was contained within the imaged confocal tissue section. P(s) measurements were made in intact cremaster muscle microvasculature of anesthetized mice and compared with measurements of P(s) made in isolated rat skeletal muscle microvessels. Mouse arteriolar P(s) was 9.9 +/- 1.1 x 10(-7) cm/s (n = 16), which was not different from 8.4 +/- 1.3 x 10(-7) cm/s (n = 6) in rat arterioles. Values in venules were significantly (P < 0.05) higher: 44.4 +/- 7.9 x 10(-7) cm/s (n = 14) in mice and 25.0 +/- 3.7 x 10(-7) cm/s in rats. Convective coupling was estimated to contribute <10% to the measured P(s) in both microvessel types and both animal models. We conclude that this approach provides an appropriate quantification of P(s) in the intact microvasculature and that arteriolar P(s), while lower than in venules, is nevertheless consistent with arterioles being a significant source of interstitial protein.
