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

objectiveWe aimed to evaluate the effect on renal functions and blood pressure of the addition of low dose aspirin (LDA) to cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors or nonselective NSAIDs.

methodsTwo groups each containing 14 patients with one group using celecoxib and the other indomethacin regularly for at least 1 week were included into the study. Both groups were initially administered 100 mg/day (week 1), and later 300 mg/day (week 2) aspirin. Baseline and weekly serum creatinine, uric acid, electrolytes, creatinine clearance (CrCl) and blood pressure were obtained.

resultsContrary to the celecoxib group, in the indomethacin group, both after the first and the second weeks the mean serum creatinine increased and CrCl decreased when compared to baseline values (p values<0.05). In the indomethacin group, when compared to baseline values systolic blood pressure was significantly higher after week 1 and uric acid level after week 2 (p values = 0.01). The frequency of patients with a >or=20% decrease in CrCl at the end of week 2 was higher in the indomethacin group than in the celecoxib group (42.9% vs. 0%, p = 0.016). The difference between the mean creatinine (p = 0.017) and CrCl values (p = 0.007) from baseline until after week 2 was more significant in the indomethacin group than in the celecoxib group.

conclusionsThe addition of LDA to patients using indomethacin led to significant renal dysfunction. Subjects using celecoxib seem to have been protected from the renal side effects of LDA.
